Need a little advice..i just bought a 04 mustang gt has lots and lots of engine mods, been completely forged from top to bottom and has the vortech 2 S/C. My question is, is there any intake manifold out there that wont crack from all the boost from the supercharger? I currently have an aluminum intake manifold on there now and has cracked a little bit from all the force from the supercharger bearing down on the manifold as boost increases. Im going to have it welded this week but idk if it will last or not. Any advice is appreciated.

How much boost are you running?

The pro products intake (all their products really) have some quality control issues.

That's not near enough to crack a manifold. I'd say you just had a crap one.

I'm at that and more on a stock plastic one.
