Zeldoz Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Mine is SS i believe... Couldn't fault it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 There is a jam mani I have in mind aswell for cheaper it's a question of spool time cast iron and stock heatsheild to keep the heat off the radiator or heatwrap the ss I cannot decide as I want to keep the jam theme going I'm thinking ss mani blitz k1 and HKS actiator @ 1.1 bar or jam mani blitz and jam actuator @ 1 bar it's a pain in the ass decision!

Zeldoz Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 My zisco is heatwrapped on a TD04 full boost is around 4,1k i "think" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 The Zisco ramhorn looks the far better design of the two tbh.Ive had two TD04 Zisco ramhorn manis and they are top notch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 The Zisco ramhorn looks the far better design of the two tbh.Ive had two TD04 Zisco ramhorn manis and they are top notch.Sounds good will deliver smoother power I reckon to unsure weather to change the actuator aswell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Sounds good will deliver smoother power I reckon to unsure weather to change the actuator aswellWas gonna say throw the actuator to fuck and go EWG but it would be criminal to weld up a K1 lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Was gonna say throw the actuator to fuck and go EWG but it would be criminal to weld up a K1 lol.Already thought about it lol if it was a tongs yes haha the hybrid should hold boost well enough Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 i have a ram ms, less chance of cracking in the mani compared to ss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 i have a ram ms, less chance of cracking in the mani compared to ss.How are they less chance of cracking? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Don't know tbh, i was just told they were and that mild steel is better for reducing the chance of cracking Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Don't know tbh, i was just told they were and that mild steel is better for reducing the chance of crackingI heard that to, there easier to weld if needed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 haha i heard there more resistant to cracking but harder to weld? lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
richardc9052 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Mild steel mani's are easier to weld than stainless as the stainless manifolds tend to be thinner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie5414 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Stainless, can polish it up and make it look awesome. The steel just goes a shitty colour and doesn't do any justice, you may aswell just go for a compact style if it's only steel. If it's ram horn it has to be stainless!

scottieboi94 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I agree that mild steel looks shit but you have got less chance of cracking which is important when it comes to manifolds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 My current Zisco mani is a mild one but its heat wrapped, the downpipe however is stainless and looks the fuckin business. Highly doubt Zisco stainless will crack anyway so i wouldn't let that worry you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Ye wrapping it isnt a bad idea, will give you advantages of less heat and will look good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie5414 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 Everyone says that steel is less prone to crack then a stainless one, but that's just down to that specific manifold, it could have welding defects etc... Both SS & Steel ones by Zisco are fabricated well, and I doubt you would have to worry about either cracking. That just leaves price and looks, if you can't afford a stainless but can face having a not so nice looking manifold, go steel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I only went steel because apparently they have more resistance to cracking thats all, but whether that is true i don't know Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 I went with a mild mani because its a top mount kit so you can hardly see the mani so no point getting a stainless one. Plus i wanted to wrap it and again no point wrapping stainless. Function > form Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gainzy Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Good response, think al just wrap a mild good response guys I would buy a stainless but my tax disc says no haha bastards Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garrygt Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 if your going for top mount, go mild steel, thats what i done for my wepr, the downpipe is stainless anyway and you cant see the mani. mild steel still looks smart anyway but for bottom mount id go stainless Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 i'll have a WEPR ct9 power up kit, externally gated for sale soon. Don't know if you'd be interested at all?its heatwrapped mild steel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sandham Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Go ewg and get a bracket made to hold the internal gate shut? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
