I had finally take the stock manifold heat shield off to see if I had any cracks on my manifold, the shield bolts were completely rusted and the heads just broke off. Stock exhaust is un-cracked and all bolts are still tight and all there but rusted. Car has about 36.7k miles on it. I wanted to replace the bolts because it seems like they have already gone through a lot of heat cycles, so i figured since I would be unbolting the mani, that this would be a good time to just change the mani completely. I know there are a few of them out there. I have seen the Thunder mani for sale here on forums for about $170. I tried to fine some info on this mani but there is much other than the GB thread being moved off the forum apparently. I know at least the best versions of this mani would be v2 or v3. I had also read that there are not really any performance gains from this mani, but im not really looking for performance gains atm. Just something that looks better than the stock callaway mani, but still functions pretty much the same.
Here is a pick of my mani now:
