My manifold is an off brand from ssautochrome.com, it holds a t/4 or larger turbo and has a 4" wg flange, ss and ported and polished. with the support tabs welded in this thing and the flange size, i never had a problem with cracking, ive used this manifold on my first 2 high hp 7m's. I've never heard of 7mpower.com, i recently started going on line to see if there are any updated parts or software for this engine, im trying for 800hp reliably for racing, its gotta live. up till now, i used my dealership and track connections for my parts and info. the first two, the cars were totalled at the track, so im building my third with a few changes. my car is not what you call street leagal, i mean, i can drive it on the street if only i know where all the cops are at that time, i race it at Mid Ohio sports track against vetts, porche's, beemers, so its not as nice looking as the ones on 7mpower. cant seem to keep them rookie drivers from hitting me. You are right about needing a larger dp with a new manifold, but, you were gonna get one anyway. the header style manifold really cuts the turbo lag bigtime, so even with 8psi, it feels like 14psi instantaniously.
