[Mk2] [Turbo] bracing a s/s manifold

Post by rookie-racer »

iirc cheap stainless manifolds tend to break, but wasnt there a discussion a while ago about welding some bracing into them to prevent them cracking? if so where do we weld them and has anyone got any photos of one that has been braced - cheers - jay

I think it was one of the guys from 3s who said if you welded some metal between the manifolds they would be stronger and be less prone to cracking so worth dropping james a pm perhaps
