I came across xs-power.com today and their prices are extremely reasonable. They have a large presence on Club NA-T but I wanted to get some opinions here from the MKIII crowd. Anybody running their manifolds? Is anybody running their turbos?

ive heard the manifolds are decent but im not sure about the turbo, some people get lucky i guess... but its like everyone says.. you get what you pay for. i plan on using a manifold from them someday but id rather save for a decent turbo but if youre on a budget ive heard good things about masterpower turbos

I wouldn't touch their turbos.. But their manifolds hold up decent, many many people use them on SF (2jzs). I havn't seen a ssauto/xs-power manifold in person, but honestly drewgos manifold quality is going to be hard to beat.. Price is higher then the xs-power, but its all ready coated and the collector is amazingly smooth, no ridges anywhere that I saw. Very well put to gether manifold.

ive heard nothing but good things on cna-t about them. if i were you, i would go directly through 98mkiv on clubna-t. my friend went to his house to pick up the parts and said he was an awesome guy. for the price of that turbo, it might be worth it to try them out. 320 shipped for a t70? insaine prices.

i bought the T70 from them. when i get above 10psi...holy crap, my car hauls ass. i'm using a -3 hose for the feed, i've read threads about putting too much oil in turbos. we'll see how long it lasts, hopefully till i'm ready to get a REAL turbo.

They are SSAutochrome.

SSA manifolds are some of the best in the world on the dyno. Titan Motorsports swears by them and so do alot of other big name shops. They crack, but the HP results are worth it.

I've run them on my 7M and my 2JZGE, I love both of them. I didn't even need a spacer to fit the MP T70 on the 2JZGE manifold. If you wan't to run a dump tube with the WG on either manifold I'd suggest rotating the WG flange 90*. Besides that, no issues.

I bought a 2jzge manifold from Mark (98mkiv) on CNA-t, very professional; excellent communication and fast shipping.

The manifold also looks great.

You don't see us shipping ebay headers unless its common knowledge what it is. We tested an ebay header with Wes's car another common knowlege project, we spent more $ in modifying the header then it cost and still had quality issues that didnt' meet our needs, we made all this information public. Is it China, no its the quality of the manufacturers and the material they use. I can say that not all China stuff is bad, I have 5 Apple Ipod's and they are all awesome with no problems. Again its the people behind the product. At Titan I feel we have the best people and we stick behind our product, is our stuff made in China....NO, because I can't find anything up to my standards so far.

doesn't sound like it

Of course Nero will say that to the public, he's a brown man that wants your money.

I was at the shop one day, he had a 28.8k us robotics serial modem that had 1 inch of dust on it hanging out. I coulda used it for my laptop for when I went on Vacations (internal modem plug broke). I was like Nero how much do you want for that dinosaur? He was like $25 bucks! lol. I was like dude I can buy a new pcmcia 56k for $10, cut me a better deal, and he's like nope $25 bucks.


lol

That's what I figured you were bending towards. What does his race have to do with any of this? Are you a bigot at heart or just hell bent to be an ass?
