When i had the Greddy turbo kit on my car I thought that with the P-FAB manifold I wouldnt have to worry about the manifold cracking. That was not the case though. Within 1500 miles the manifold started to crack along the welds in two different spots. Bottom line... You need to have a flex pipe welded into the down pipe.
hmmm? well doesnt the pfab have a lifetime warrenty at least?

I just recently purchased a brand new Pfab Greddy replacement manifold and notice a line cut on the mounting face of the manifold

emailed Pang and he said this is to allow heat expansion to prevent manifold crack. anyone with pfab got the same design?

please provide more information on this solution. Where did you get the flex pipe, Where is it welded?

greeeatt. i have an exhaust leak and i was hoping it was a gasket, but now im scared that it's going to be the P-FAB manifold.
