WRX manifolds

[Flat over crest]

Has anyone fitted a Japspeed stainless steel manifold? This particular item requires some minor sub frame modifications according to the information and I wondered if anyone had any details to share.

Others are available but are three to four times the price; appreciate the 'get what you pay for' thoughts, which I agree with mostly, just trying to balance mild upgrade costs with a relatively low value car that I'm hoping to maintain.

Thanks

A mix of things really. Replacing an ageing item that has a leak and blowing from somewhere. Intend to keep the car long term so happy to invest on maintenance and upgrades that help that long term view.

Potential for minor performance gain which is a secondary consideration and a bonus should that be the case.

Appreciate the interest, do you know of any other options? I am keeping an eye out for second hand stainless steel manifolds but in passing, not by concerted effort.

Thank you gentlemen, a good suggestion and a good point to consider.

Much appreciated

Thank you to the last trio of respondents also.

It has helped to get a plan into place. I do need to get some research done as I have yet to see even a standard manifold. Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place. For porting is anyone aware of a business that offers the service in the south coast area close to Portsmouth.

I'll have a search around too. Cheers
