So I was planning on boosting this summer and I'm slowly collecting parts I need. Now, I've gotten to the exhaust part. I don't exactly know which one to get.
I've heard the headers can break because its made from thinner metal then the Cast Iron Log Manifolds. But then people told me that the Cast Iron Log Manifold can crack over time because it can't cope with the expanding and contracting of the manifold because it's casted.
Logs are cheaper and sure as hell look more heavy duty, but the Turbo headers are suppose to flow better because their all equal lengths.
I'm not talking about Ramhorns because those custom made for me will run me $600-$900, which is, a lot. lol.
I don't know what to doooo!!!! BUT, the 2nd one MIGHT make contact with my rubber AC line which runs in front of my radiator which might cause a problem when everything is bolted in. I don't really want the turbo itself to be touching my AC line, nothing good can come out of it lol.
The Log shouldn't make contact with the AC line cause it doesn't stick the turbo that far away from the engine. I won't know everything until I order it but I don't wanna order it and then have it make contact with it cause it pushes the turbo out to far.
