Improper porting can actually make flow worse, and in the case of 2G heads, you'll lose a little bit of the edge they get. The smaller ports equals higher velocity air, as opposed to more volume at lesser velocity. Leave the head alone for now.

As for the exhaust manifold, pickup a FP exhaust manifold or an EVO 3 manifold. Both are proven log style manifolds and cast, so they won't crack on you like the eBay tubular.

^^x2.

That GST was very clean at the cookout. I'd rather pay $80-$100 for a ported 2g manifold then gamble with the Egay manifold Sell it and get the Fp Manifold or the 2g manifold. Very clean GST. Keep it clean and keep it off the Egay parts. Do it the right way now so it doesn't kick you in the ass later. Good luck

Thanks.. I figured I wasn't going to be able to use the Ebay shit... UGH. Wasted money.

How about the o2 housing? Is that going to work well enough?

So that'll set me back a nice $275 I believe an FP manifold is on FP's site. Oh how I love Egay shit.
