Figured I'd post up this new goofy manifold I made.

The guy I'm building the setup for wanted something different, and I had this collector lying around for about 4 months. So, figured I'd put it to use and see what happens. The setup is going on an LS Integra with a JDM ITR front end. It'll be rollin an SC61, 1000cc injectors tuned on E85 by me, crome pro, greddy type s, I'll fab all the piping, etc.

You must be kidding.....

Guess you've never seen a miniram oil drain height. I reworked the jig specifically for the purpose of gaining oil drain height. There's over two inches there....if you can't make an oil drain work with that you have problems.

Overall, the manifold looks sexy. But from a consumer standpoint, these just looks like you rushed your way through it and fucked a measurement, which kind of throws off the look of the manifold all together, the tagged runner looks good, but the outside runner is completely different and the two welds right next to each other just scream "OOPS, ----, PATCH PIECE". Don't get me wrong though, I couldn't even dream of being able to make a manifold that looked good at all.

Re: Figured I'd post up this new goofy manifold I made.
 
Thats how you have to make manifold when your using bends, and cutting them up. In order to go from a slight bend to a slight radius or a straight you need a weld :S

Looks really good. Nice work.

Re: Figured I'd post up this new goofy manifold I made.
 
Thanks for the comments....

I'm in the South Hills near Century III mall.

The jig was contructed by my part time guy, admittedly the turbo flange was shifted sideway approximately 1/8". There is no mistake though, and it was not "slapped" together. They are all cuts made accurately with a straight, then bend, then straight, then bend.

You could eliminate the small piece in the #1 runner, but it would require cheat cutting two bends. It's alot better to have a small straight and tangent cut bends versus having cheater cut bends to reduce pieces.

Additionally, it's not my intention to reproduce this mani. Like I said, a local guy wanted something different, and I found it to be an opportunity to use a collector I'd had for a while.

Dont ever compare me to him. I've never had a manifold failure in my life, I don't take people's money, and I'm not a piece of ----. Like I said, a small piece of straight is the appropriate way to deal with a situation. I could've stretched the bend and elimated the gap, but flow quality overall suffers from cheater cuts. I chose to tangent cut it and add the piece.

I see why you had to ad that small peice in there, it does kinda take away from the final product but I think it looks very good overall. I'm not going to bash it I've never made a SS mani in my life I have to give it to you. I dont think I could keep my sanity through all those tig welds!

I dont see how it would take away from the final product.

Even the 1500 dollar full race manifolds have the same idea.

Re: Figured I'd post up this new goofy manifold I made.
 
Yeah, I don't think it takes away at all. The end result and end purpose is for it to flow as well as possible. Visual symetry comes second in my opinion. The customer is happy with it, so I suppose that's all that counts.

The manifold was priced as a miniram, which I sell for 415 shipped with an ext gate. It'll be a nice build....good on the budget, and something he'll upgrade later. He has a sleeved block and will be going with a topmount later.

that manifold is baller hands down, someone needs to run a similar on a huge hp setup vs topmount 30ft of pipe setup

Sorry bro. Not my style. Drain sux. Nothing personal, yet... and no im not kidding... I didnt say it wouldnt work, i didnt even flame you so shut the ---- up you ------- ---- bleeding ------. The manifold is sub par design IMO... If you dont like my opinion... I've done my job asswipe.

Now,

go make another one.

Well, you have a right to your opinion certainly. I'm a little shocked your so critical, calling me a ---- and what not, given how undercut and burned the welds are on your topmount. I suppose your probably not gonna like my opinion either at this point.

I'm curious how you'd approach doing miniram style mani's with fairly large turbo's and gain any additional drain height than I've gotten here?

I've got quite a few orders right now, and I don't want to get overwhelmed. The banner does quite well on its own. I have analytics on my website, so I know where people are coming from.

It doesn't hurt my feelings at all..

Actually: The fact that you retaliate like a sexually abused pre teen girl says something about your faggot ass... Duly noted to take into consideration in the future....

Quite sure im making more on my " burnt undercut fucked up" manifold than whoever you sell that thing will too... Welds are nice... I KNOW you only built one... I wouldnt buy one and id be willing to BET my manifold makes better power. Build a topmount for h22/GT40 for an Accord thats designed properly and Id buy a manifold from you. Just not that one.Bottom line is my ---- is PROVEN to be a VERY efficient setup, the manifold lengths/volumes were calculated before it was started. It makes ridiculous power... EVERYWHERE.



Good luck.

Mini rams are nice for quick spool. Each manifold has its purpose. Drag car vs street car. Having a drag car powerband (gt40-topmount) would suck on the street. Sure it would be fun in some cases. But for the average consumer, they want power on tap.

Rc000e-Do you ever hit up Pittsburgh raceway park? Ive seen some pretty quick hondas there last season on test and tune nights.

Thats a pretty umbrella'd statement... I assure you.. The top mount isnt what would make it laggy... Thre turbo MIGHT... But it wont on this setup either - iyts not some HT dipshit trying to spool it on a 1.6L motor (2.3L FTW)... The T4 PT 6176SP turbo spooled like a ------- td04 on this motor..... The GT40 is JUST fine (I have FULL boost by 4500-5000- Redline 8500ish). In the end... The four door is PLENTY a ----------er on the street.... Yet to be beat actually. I assure you it doesnt "suck". Bring your ---- on and id love to show you......

In fact its been called "Completely ------- ridiculous". Power is on tap. Everywhere.... at least everywhere I need it. I thought it would be laggy too, but alas its not.... Theres alot more than putting "30 feet of pipe together" to building a manifold tht works WELL.... Im sure RCoo0e would agree. For the power my car has... It has it all over the map... BUt then again, I did alot of research before I did anything else...






Soooooooo so much for that theory.

Mini rams hang low. You can push the collector out a bit and cut it at an angle. I clock the center section a bit to aid in draining. It just comes with the design. I sold one to a guy in Mass that made 485 on it so the design is solid enough. I like this one because it one off and different. It gets real boring real fast making the same ---- day in and day out. Thats why I stopped making them for the most part.
