Been re-machining ours for the last year.. nothing left this time round.. off to scrap heap. It first started warping at 250HP then again after 450HP and spending hours making the jig to fix it. It would seem that the problem is in the end runner lengths and not the heat destress due to power.

A big waste gate is definetly needed when running smaller ex housings but it can never hurt with a larger 50mm. If you get excited, plumbing two internal and external wouldn't hurt either.

I was thinking like some ppl here. Chinese 1 will do. Then after 4 runs at heathcote on 30psi i thougt my engine cracked in half or something. Manifold started making loud ticking noises. Ends up.costing less to buy 6boost if you have bigger plans in the future. And save time and money unbolting fixing putting back
