Why didn't you come up with your own design instead of copying love-fab?

Thats definitely NOT true. Its obviously a rip off of the Lovefab minime, I mean jesus it even has the same name. I can think of at least 5 manifold designs that I want to build and they all look nothing like any other manifold on the market.

a manifold of the magnitude you would build would cost more than most hmt'ers could afford though

Their are only so many workable designs. If he cpoied some or part of it whats the problem. Is the Lovefab patent protected. Of course I would be a bit ticked if someone copied my manifold. Then again I made my manifold myself and based it off of what I saw online. Just pros and cons....

The only thing simular about lovefab's and mine is the name, and I picked that name because I couldnt think of anything else at the time. If you can find another manifold on the market that looks just like this please show it, because last I checked there is none.

I don't understand, just because the overall manifold is short and the runners on the outstide are longer, it is the same as the LoveFab? To me it looks nothing like the LoveFab mani.
To me there are only so many simple and short designs that you can do, even though I have never seen one like this myself.
I say good job on the originality James. It looks like this manifold will provide some quick spool and good flow.
BTW whover that designer is sure does have some skills!!!

whitey forgot to mention that he also makes his own bends and can make an entire manifold out of straight pipe, in which case, all your manifolds are different whitey

is this going to have that universal flange which will accept the t4, t3, chrysler t3, and volvo t3?
imo, you should come up with another name besides "mini me"

Yes this manifold will use the universal t3/t4 turbine flange. And the manifold design is to be used for maximum spool up and a very free flowing manifold.
