Exhaust manifolds: ATS vs BD vs HTT
 

Sounds like all 3 of these are repitutable brands, I also understand that the stock CTD exh. manifolds like to crack.

Which one of these manifolds are worth it, does any one have any experience with any of these aftermarket manifolds? can you feel the the increase in spool up or anything? and how hard is it to remove your old stock manifold?

thanks again guys for all your great answers!!!

im liking this website more and more!!!:c:

they are all worth it ......not much diff tween the 3 of em......I have the HTT and love it whatever ya do just make sure ya port match em up and polish em good, big diff in spool up much quicker , easy job to do to

i got an ats, dont know if there was a difference in the spool up, truck was down over a year from the time mine broke and i got it running again.

You won't find spits worth a difference between them as far as performance, just make sure you get one that is pre-tapped for the pyro. Not sure which brands are anymore, they seem to change once in a while from year to year.

Ill give ya the advice that ol' Biged didnt give ya from his personal experience...Dont i repeat DO NOT use a plasma cutter to cut the stock manifold off the truck if the bolts are seized :D now you know why his truck was down :run:

what about pdi?

what about them???:ph:






















:tttt:

I like the HTT's very quality product, great price and includes new gaskits.

cool! reason i was asking becuase back when i bought my turbo originally it was a 62/14, i had some pretty bad lag and while pulling my boat (19ft fiberglass) on the highway i had so much lag and when id try to accelerate under low boost my egts would skyrocket, so i called HT turbo and they sent me a 12cm exhaust housing. what a difference that made.. but i miss the top end pull of the 14cm housing. was thinking if i installed a different ex manifold this would cure the spool up issue with the old 14cm...:humm:

yes thanks for the bad memories man. :ouch: and yes ill say it to.
DO NOT CUT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD OFF WITH A PLASMA CUTTER.
