as soon as I stop driving it for the winter I can take it off

Mark who makes that one? It looks like an Ebay one.

[iroc_g]

Just wondering if anybody had an idea when they were going to be able to drop off their manifolds? Im not pushing, just trying to plan out the rest of my week.

[TkrPerformance]

I did buy it off ebay for less than they wanted on there web site. It came from japan there is not many that will fit a evo I-III
It is a copy of the cast hks manifold. This one is also fully cast alum. bottom 1/2 is cast with v-stacks in it and the top 1/2 is cast then just welded together you have your choice of tb flange.

[turbotalon1g]

Nice, I was looking into that.

[TkrPerformance]

there is plenty of alum to port it out to a 1g head also. If I can pick up a 2nd one for the same price I paid I would and use it for the spyder. they are made to order on the t.b. flange mitsu and q45 are free of charge. others cost for the flange it self

[turbotalon1g]

^Well get it tested if the price is right I am down to try it out and get some more power.

Call FFWD, they are supposed to be doing the exact same research.

[iroc_g]

Yes, ffwd has been "doing" this for over 6 months now. What I am trying to do is quick and simple. The flow bench is going to tell most of the story with all these different manifolds. And if it does follow up with dyno testing, even better.

All I know is that we have a chance to do somthing that nobody has been able to do AND finish with any type of answers. I want to make sure my car gets the best manifold available.

I would let you know when mine is coming, but neither of the 2 people who are saying they'd bring it to you have contacted me. Sorry.
