Its CAST IRON...you even know what casted means?!?! You get a mold and pour melted iron into it. There is no welding involved. Look at the picture, theres no weld on it what so ever...

PS: Im in no way or anything defending ISIS. But people want a manifold that wont crack and cheap, cast manifold would be the way to go.

It's CAST as one piece in a mold you fucking retard. Jesus. How hard is this concept to grasp?

There's no welding on a cast manifold. Period.

Casting is a manufacturing process by which a liquid material is usually poured into a mold, which contains a hollow cavity of the desired shape, and then allowed to solidify. The solidified part is also known as a casting, which is ejected or broken out of the mold to complete the process. Casting materials are usually metals or various cold setting materials that cure after mixing two or more components together; examples are epoxy, concrete, plaster and clay. Casting is most often used for making complex shapes that would be otherwise difficult or uneconomical to make by other methods.[1]
Casting is a 6000 year old process.[2] The oldest surviving casting is a copper frog from 3200 BC.



Its all one piece. No welding... You can clearly see by looking at that ISIS manifold that there are no welds.

S14_Kouki is kind of slow. This is the same kid that argued:

As the response to why he paired the runners incorrectly on his twin scroll turbo manifold and ran an incorrectly paired bottom mount versus a properly paired top mount... I'm not at all surprised that he thinks that cast manifolds are welded and/or glued together.

You should put this^^^ in your sig since you cant seem to drop things. Or You Dont seem to grasp that YOU CAN NOT put that turbo in a top mount form sorry. Since your all talk can you make us a manifold and show us hows its done???? Did I make this manifold wrong ?????




Or how about this log manifold???



I love ppl that talk shit but they dont know how to build the stuff they talk shit about. My incorrectly paired manifold was on MY OWN car not a costumers so it does not matter.


Needca I want you to find ONE thing wrong with anymore of my work. Please do show us.

You lack the intellect to grasp the concept of cast metal manifolds, why would anyone want you to fabricate parts for them?

And why is your response "make us a manifold and show us hows its done????" I'm not a fabricator. But I never claimed to be one either? I'm trying to get it through your thick fucking skull that cast iron parts are not welded together. Or glued. Or however else you think they make them...

And no I can't. But I'm a soils engineer, not a master fabricator like yourself. I can however understand how twin scroll manifolds pair runners to work properly! And I can figure out the concept of casting metal without making a fool of myself! So maybe you should just slow it down a notch with the fabthis parts slinging. Unless you're a vendor of course?

No im not a vendor just a guy building for extra money. You are a engineer that understands stuff cool. So can you please understand my runners are not paired because it was impossible to pair them. Can you by any means understand this??? Can you also understand since they are incorrectly paired that it only effects my spool by maybe 300 rpms.

That log manifold is for a Saturn ac saver thats the only place to put a wastegate. I charge $700-800 depending on engine company and $1000 for inline 6 engine

So wait you made a fucked up manifold, you know it was fucked up but your ran it anyways? So if you're willing to cut corners on YOUR OWN car, how the fuck would I (as a customer) could trust you do not do the same shit with my car?!?! So yes, IT DOES FUCKING MATTER when you do dumb shit.

PS: I found one thing wrong with your shit...lack of craftsmanship. For as much you charge, I'd rather get a Peak Boost, Synapse or Full-Race.

You dont know the story and I know your going to say " I dont fucking care" but if you were there when I made it then you can talk shit or maybe you dont care. People on zilvia and a number of forums know I do great work and dont let them down.

Cool man thats a cool story im glad you cared to look. I know my work on my car is not "correct" By all means dont worry whos ever car I build for will be awesome work great and never fail. So if you want to spend a extra $400 on a full-race go ahead . Its the same material same craftsmanship of a full- race "super awesome manifold"
