who did they rip off this time to come up with that design? Looks nice, too rich and way too heavy of a manifold for me

hey if it performs right. just the downpipe would cause a few headaches im sure, but thats if it was for like a real driver type car. looks more better for a race car, open downpipe type deal...

Hulk Hogan's like "wow gotta cop that for the pupra" :P

i don't see the advantage of haveing one of those. a lovefab ramhorn design in the regular turbo position should work just as good. and the turbo positioned so high like that will kill the panit on any car hood with all the heat it puts out.

Javier has had one of those on his SR20 sentra a few years ago. However the new b-series manifold was released at the show.

Heres another shot

I don't think my hood would shut cause it's sticking the turbo way over the top of the valve cover.

I think the point was to come up with something new.


I pm'd bmc race about a month ago about getting a manifold they said they have a new design out...
i wonder if they follow the same design?
