So you decided in S/C Benn? I'll probably be going back and forth until I finally just do it next year haha.
Edit: Benn, that's a hybrid manifold and that can crack because it's welded. Logs don't crack because it's a solid cast hunk of heavy ass metal.

i haven't decided on anything. weighing the pros and cons. i do know what you're talking about. about being a tube that has an exhaust gasket that bolts right up. but, if i have to go with one i would go with a true ex.mani.
that's why i love the sidewinder setups in our cars. yeah it might crack but, that is one problem among many. i would be more worried about spending money on turbo. turbos are not cheap especially for a good GT series.

Log (Cast, this one is a hybrid cast one for a twin scroll turbo setup):
Pros: Solid, resists cracking.
Cons: Heavy, not as efficient for spooling as Tube.
Tube (Welded):
Pros: Light, even length tubes / divided chambers for twin scroll allows for super efficient spool.
Cons: Can crack, prone to vibration / rattling which results in cracking.
