    1. Apparently the manifold design was updated(for the 240sx) and less likely to crack.

    2. We'll find out.

    3. Some of the ebay intercoolers are just as good as the real thing. You just have to do some research.

    I'll take my chances.

    Moat of the time they do just fine. Notch your manifold like I said and get it tuned immediately. Careful with tapping the oil pan too.

    why would you go cheap on such important parts?
    just go buy a log mani and weld it yourself.
    i;m sure it'll be a lot more assurance than the t3/t4 ssac mani.
    and you really want to risk your setup on a ssac wastegate?

    Do you have personal hands on experience with any of these parts?

    Regardless... I'm probably not going with the ssautochrome wastegate.

    But everything else remains the same.
