Has anyone found less expensive alternatives to the OEM exhaust manifold for the N/A '98 V70 ? My flex pipe is toast, and the weld shop who has repaired other exhaust systems for me can't get up to the flex pipe to try to mend it from underneath.

I suspect it was brought about with that failed top front motor mount I just finished changing out (see prior thread....).

FCP Groton sells ScanTech manifolds for $259 with a lifetime guarantee. I know ScanTech's quality is spotty, but I have no history with their exhaust components.

Balance of the exhaust system is getting pretty long in the tooth. If I could do it without breaking the bank, I'd go front-to-back. Any war stories or recommendations on that front ??? I don't look to keep the car 10 more years, so I'm not anxious to pour tons of money into it........
