I have that exact same turbo manifold made by obx but for the d-series and man is she a beautiful one.....You wont be dissapointed with it, trust me.... And for all of you out there that think obx is like SSAUTOCHROME, not even close in quality

RE: obx manifolds?
 

i think your going to kiss your a/c goodbye with that one

what dj said.

OBX are kinda hit and miss. so someone might have one that works well and lasts a lifetime, but someone else might get one that was made around the same time and the welds could crack within a month. just be careful and cross you fingers.

HAHAHAHA! I don't have an a/c or power steering that robs you hp!

RE: obx manifolds?
 

thanks I'll go for it.

RE: obx manifolds?
 

it doesnt rob your HP it just makes for less potential and adds dead weight.

?

I thought the crank powered all that shiz.

RE: obx manifolds?
 

i say go for it. my friend has an OBX header on his mazda protege5 and no problems and the welds are fine. It says to comes with a lifetime warranty so might as well go for it.

RE: obx manifolds?
 

yeah i know my obx turbo manifold went right were my power steering and ac would of went if i had it....hahahahaha thank god i dont have any

RE: obx manifolds?
 

you do gain power when you remove your a/c and power steering.

RE: obx manifolds?
 

maybe 1 or 2 horses from AC. but thats it. no power steering.

RE: obx manifolds?
 

when your already going 150 mph 1 or 2 hp makes a difference.

RE: obx manifolds?
 

your ac eats mre like 5 hp

RE: obx manifolds?
 

i dont think a single belt will rob 5hp
