He should be scared if it's sub-2.0 liter, and he keeps that ill flowing manifold. This one might not last 2300 miles like the B16 did at those power levels.

Good. Repeat after me, "as shallow a merge angle as possible pls kthx," also try to get the center collector point nice + sharp to help transition flow.
