Anyone used this RS2 EM?

HI,
Has anyone used this EM before?

They are doing them at $450 shipped to a UK address, the EM's are located in the UK, and take 2-4 days. I'm fitting a K24 7400 volvo turbo, so won't be chasing serious power. They come with a years warrenty for cracks etc. I don't/wont spend big bucks on a EM, just after something other that standard, the car will only ever se a few thousand miles a year, it would be for a AAN S6 Avant. I know people say the cheaper ones crack, but don't all the RS2 manifolds crack anyway?

Planned mods are

K24 7400/K26 Turbo
RS2 Replica EM
RS2 Injectors
3" DP and System
FMIC

That looks like a rip-off of a Wagner EM (or its someone elses heavily influenced 'design'). It's certainly not a genuine one.

I'd personally say stump up for a Wagner, you really can't go wrong with it and it's a one-time cost. Mine was £600 shipped, that yank one is going to be £350 shipped plus any import duty. Otherwise try to get a good used RS2 EM or one of those cheap ebay ones which probably won't last long. But if "not long" is only 20-30k that is still going to take you 5-10 years.... pay your money, take your choice

shame there are no pictures of the collector, looks like a Wagner copy to me.

I run an RS2 Exhaust manifold with the K24-7400. this seems like a very good price, granted many times you get what you pay for, If you don't have the money to get better quality, go with it.
