unless you are going with a different turbo, or want something prettier than stock, save your $$ on replacing the manifold....not worth the time/expense

It was not that hard to replace, and it was not that exspensive. I did it with the SSautochrome+jet hot coating. It's sounds better and looks better. As far as performance I'm not sure. I did not get a reflash yet and am having no problems, but I am planning on getting one soon.

Buschur used to port and jet coat, but I'm not sure if they still do. Anyone thinking of this can shoot me a PM because I have an extra OEM ex manifold.
