They are 2" runners, which is a bit bigger than most people use. I wanted to incorporate an anti-reversion design into the manifold due to it's inherent poor flow design, so there is a step at port exit. Not sure if it will work, but in such a high back-pressure environment, I can't see it hurting.

It was a secret, it's posted there now. Tom is an N/A guy, but when you have somebody willing to do all the fab for free, wouldn't you go turbo as well? Besides, he wants more power and this is the easiest, cheapest way, his car is going to be insane!!!!!

He's going to start at 5psi and we'll go from there, the car will eventually see 8 lbs, but that'
s about it, it's going to be tough to drive as it is, plus the reliability of the S20 LSD trans is suspect as you approach 200 hp.
