and even if it looks good, it doesnt perform (ss a's make headers for cars that look like once from other companies but because their port/flange work is so crap it doesnt make any extra gain at all)
about the new manifold
im guessing youll be a bit more laggier on the spoolup, but it wont choke as much hi end.

do you mean the 3sgte headers are crap or their whole range??
you seem to have the most knowledge on their products
how did they go on your gt4??
can you tell me the flow difference between their manifold and a factory manifold if their port/flange work is crap as you say
and gain is nothing - it makes me wonder why they make them
cheers

wasnt me, a mate put SS A's headers for a 5s-fe on his car and it ended up making no gains at all, although it did look nice, that was about it. lots of bad stories about their work at toyotanation forums too.
their shit looks good (well the welds dont but...) <-- ppl buy rice 
|
The difference between a 5SFE N/A manifold and a 3SGTE Twin entry Turbo manifold could not be any different in dimensions and flow characteristics....and the difference in power gains between upgrading to a free flowing exhaust manifold on an N/A car and that of a turbo car couldnt be greater.....
You are trying to compare apples and oranges in an attempt to sound like an authority on a topic which you have no first hand experience in and you opinions seem to have basis in observation not fact.
