Pitcured:
-Tial 38mm Wastgate (bought brand new 2+ years ago)
-PeakBoost FTW Ramhorn (bought brand new 2+ years ago, yet this is my 3rd “new one” thanks to lifetimewarranty because they keep cracking)

Moral of the story is i dont know what to do…is there a lemon law of “lifetime warranties” ? hahah

heres what im thinking…

  1. Same mani design but w/44mm gate
  2. Topmount mani + 44mm gate
  3. Ask for my money back and go to Full-Race :slight_smile:

geez. thought the manifold was bad enough lol.
at least end of year. hope you get it back togetehr for spring

That’s the problem with DD tubular manifolds.

You and Mike (smokindiesel) are having the same luck this month!

5

I expected the manifold to crack and break,
but the w/g?
What are you doing to these parts!

6

haha that thing has broken that many times, unreal!

7

hahah i know right?!

i think i figured it out…ok so my street driven 400whp integra simplifies into this simple equation…
Station Auto Built Bottom End + Hybridynamics Tune > Rigidity of Parts*

99 times out of 100, there is engine failure before shit like this happens haha

I can honestly say i beat the living piss out of this car (2+ years, street, track, even took it off-roading) and never had a motor issue. just everything else bolted on wants to break apparently.

Also:
-EGT gauge was installed 6 months ago and temps are fine! (AutoMeter)
-Always Turbo Timed (Greddy)
-Cold and Hot Boost Cut (Hondata S300)

wow I never saw a wastegate valve snap off.
