Opinion on Replacement Exhaust Manifold - 03 MSP

[GAwes]

Hey guys, i've got an 03 msp and i went to go replace my upstream o2 today, and lo and behold my exhaust manifold has 3 small cracks on it, so im getting opinions on replacing it. From general searching it looks like this problem is pretty common. Does anyone make a cheaper one than Steedspeed's 690 dollar version that is worthy of any note? I assume its not the best idea to buy another "stock" (callaway) manifold as they seem to be cracking. Also, should i buy one straight from steedspeed's website or wait for one to turn up on here (they seem to come up quite often, but i've just joined today)? Thanks a lot everybody in advance

thunder makes a mani as well, a good deal cheaper that steedspeed, but you have to hunt the "for sale" section for them, they usually go very quickly

Thanks for the plug.

I still sell them, the deal now is Thunder just makes each one to order instead of a couple
dozen at time.
It's not as cheap as the Group Buy pricing used to be but they are shipped within 2.5-3 weeks.

GAwes, you have a PM.

GAwes, if you try to find a used Thunder Mani, make sure you get the version 2.

By the way, Protephile is a great guy to do business with.
