ya that manifold is garbage! i ordered one about three weeks ago, let me tell you the welds were burnt and bubbly (first year welding students could have done better)! and the shipping took like 14 days. just my info, but maybe it's gotten better or mine was defective?

I bought one on Ebay about a year ago. I have put 7 or more thousand miles on it since. Mine is doing fine. Howerver I do remember paying alot more for it. The manifold also came with a "lifetime warranty", but I can't even remember who I bought it from. I paid around 100-125ish, it also had a gasket.

At the time some sellers where touting not all Ebayers were selling a quality product. So there maybe two versions of these out there, cheap and really cheap.

I am satisfied with mine, it fit right and no more leaks.

I just looked and it was 1A Auto where I bought mine.

pace setters stick out too far from the engine at the collectors to fit with most aftermarket front axles.........collectors are positioned wrong.........and I have recently replaced one of those that cracked at the base of both collectors...the guy is still waiitng for warranty from pace setter........I will see if I can find the pics I took with the disposable camera

So you are saying that it did not fit and leaked? how was it defective? pretty welds dont make for a good product.........just a pretty one.........Ive seen ugly welds hold forever and pretty ones fail.....So what made it defective after you installed it

the welds were gapped and the tubes were burnt, suity.

That's where I got mine also....they were the only ones to offer a lifetime warranty on a renix manifold.It's made in china....but all the welds look clean and hot and it fit perfect.Time will tell if it'll hold up.

I got feedup with the ticking from my cracked manifold and after much searching finally I bought one of these from 1A Auto. I couldn't be happier. Fit well and the gasket was of good quality. Check it out. Might be better than the Ebay one.
