haha, don't overreact. Ok, it sucks that yours are faulty, but if you've got one without those malfunctions, there performance wise similar to other ct9 mani's with the same design.

I was just wondering, because Dave said he got a batch with thicker runners. So possibly they eBay ones are the rejects of the batch? Anyway, mines been on 3 weeks I think..I had it braced before it went on, and it went on no problems at all. Bolts were fine, clearance was fine. No problems encountered. And so far I've not had a single problem (thank God!). Just hope it holds out!

lol was my pleasure! to be honest lads i was very very impressed when i fitted chris's i said that to him! although i did tell him to get a nice thick brace welded in so think that helped alot! we had no fitment issues or anything! fitted and sealed like a glove.. seems to be batch related problems to me!

I've had bad experiences with 2 types of stainless mani before I bit the bullet and went for one of the final Roadrunner mani's. It was money VERY well spent.

You won't regret that, my roadrunner mani has been quality, never hear anything bad about them, ever!

had problems with the fmic too. not too bad just the piping amounts are a bit unnecessary and difficult to get together and fit nicely.

there autobahn manifolds sold by zena racing.

if you buy one you will need to get it braced, and some have had to machine the face that attaches to the cylinder head.

also there relatively thin 304 grade stainless steel which means it will crack quicker than you can say i fancy riko

Yea mate SS if not traated properly will crack within a few weeks, You'll have to have a Flexy part still in the exhaust, Good engine mounts a Braced De-cat or standard Cat, and even at that there is no garantee they won't crack, to be honest i'd save a little bit more and buy a Mild Steel one

Had mince braced before it was fitted, have a side exit exhaust which is braced and not had any problems. Been on for nearly a month roughly...

I know the autobahn manifold is supposed to be a bit rubbish but with a bit more welding work would it be up to the task, get a brace put on it for example and maybe a coating?

well, i've seen a few that have cracked, but a LOT have been sold, and they haven't all cracked..

I intend to have mine braced and faced, and given a once over (touched up where deemed necessary) Then I'll give it a bash :D If i don't reweld the WEPR i have access too
