I bought a manifold off the dude a couple of years ago. Really good guy and was happy to help. About a year later my manifold warped ( He was making them differently with a thinner plate then). I told him what had happened and he fixed it straight away no hassle what soever. He seems to take good pride in his work.

Think about it hard is my advice, we tried it and as far as I and my tuner think it was a waste of money and the gains were oh so disappointing, paid just over a $1000 or so and sold it for $350 just to get rid of it.

Save and do it right first time trust me you will be far better off.
