Loads of aftermarket manifolds out there fella.
Some are better quality than others.

Mild steel manis are less prone to cracking due to heat than stainless steel ones.
Although if yours have cracked due to movement of the mani/turbo/downpipe then it maybe worth getting a braced mani and downpipe to reduce this.
A competent welder would be able to knock up a brace for your existing downpipe.
If you need a new mani anyway then get a braced one.

mild steel braced mani, from zisco job done mate.
it needs to be braced as weight of turbo along with heat cracks the stainless mani..
cheap ones off ebay always crack...

WEPR all the way! I can only comment on the TD04/05 style mani but I have lost count how many times I've made my mild steel mani glow and its not faultered once.

It's had near 2bar of boost with nitrous, it's had heavy launch control and Anti Lag and it's going strong. Yes Mild steel rusts some but its a good all rounder.

Even if I break my WEPR mani, I'll be buying the same one again, the stress I put the exhaust mani under, I feel no other brand could take.

420+hp and pushing!
