There is a lot of people that say the upgraded ct-26's are not reliable when you go with a big wheel option.My ? is what is the best and lowest price option's for a turbo that needs to go at least 500 rwhp???

I come from a land down under
500 on a stock Manifold is going to be difficult unless you have it Power Ported (Extrude Honed)

The Boss Malloy just bought should be capable of 500 easily check his thread.

I see the manifolds on ebay all the time but they all seem to cheap to last very long. I know some of the turbo kits come with bad ass one's and thats prob the best option!

alot,if not all use an external wastegate.
i've read that some are put together kinda shitty,i.e. crappy welds,etc...
how much is it to have extruded? that would make it flow smoothly!

well that is JUST the manifold

then you have to reweld parts and reinforce.

Then when that exhaust manifold is ready

source ALL the parts to include turbo, oil lines and fittings, custom down pipes, mid pipes, waste gates etc.

By the time you are said and done.. $1500 NOT including your own time which if i where to charge myself what i charge clients. Easily $5000 total ;)
