Anyone used this manifold?

Spotted this on the bay; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AUDI-RS2-K...item2ebe951c76

Seems very cheap, obviously a repro manifold just wondering if anyones had any experience with these?

Not recommended, inside usually the casting between cylinders is broken and has sharp pieces which will ruin your turbo.

The mold that these were made off of is crap - it only looks somewhat like the real thing on the outside, but inside is a complete mess.

yeah, they are fake Wagner manifolds. They work but the casting is very poor, they have normally shifted a bit and really need to be cleaned up and some time spent cleaning up the inside of them.

If you buy one expect to spend an hour or so with a grinding tool inside the manifold cleaning up casting marks.

Thought it seemed too good to be true.

Did you get my PM about mapping Dmitiri?

Try to ask the seller for a picture of the inside and he will tell you that he hasn't got any... pretty suspicious.
Cheers.

In my last message I didn't want to say suspicious, I wanted to say extrage, worrying or something like that.
Cheers.
