The manifold came in today. It's a very nice piece. All the flanges are machined, the outside runners have a thick triangler cross section cast in as a support structure. The ports are gasket matched. It's hard to guess the volume of the manifold, but I would say it's simular if not smaller than a weld el manifold, the angles of the bends are smooth and should flow well. It should spool quickly and support very good power output. The wastegate placement is ideal, the opening inside the manifold leading to the wastegate could benifit from a little smoothing and contouring, but will work fine as it is. It's well thought out, designed, and manufactured top notch, I seriously doubt there will be any fitment issues. I'm still going to wait untill after I install mine to set up the group buy. I'm putting it on the weekend before halloween, so not too much longer guys. I'm very excited to see new products for the QR that are of this quality and such a good value.
I promise I'll have pictures soon.
