yea i saw the article in hci. its a crazy design it starts off as a 2 pieces in the cnc machine and hten is welded together. looks like it should work good if the ports are large enuff

I've seen these pop up from time to time on eBay and other sites. But I don't know of anyone who has actually bought one and used it.

They look pretty nice though. The cross section of the manifold looks like it would flow well. I would be worried about the turbo placement in an EF chassis like I have, but I'm sure there would be plenty of room in an EG or newer Civic.

It's so cheap someone should pick one up and test it out!

yea the first one looks like it would flow really good.

I can get it coated in ceramic (looks like chrome) for an additional $55 if you wish.
Can't polish a turd, but I guess you can try... if he had the actual shipping cost posted I may have bid... just to have it lol :y

You noobs wouldn't remember but the first manifold used to be sold on HMT. Nobody bought them becuase they were too expensive though.

is it just me or does that thing look like it would place the turbo way to far forward.

If Mad Max ran a turbo instead of a blower he'd have that mani under his hood. Forgot how jDm he was since I can't remember the last time I watched that movie.

I like the on board urinal and the quad pipes on each side. Now that ---- is gangsta. That Interceptor is badass looking.

Yes it does, I was dumb enough to buy a B series one a couple years ago, no way it will fit in an EF. I still have it, I really need to put it on ebay myself. It mounts pointing staight horizontal on the motor, then the turbo is angled about 45 degrees.
I think it would fit in a 5th or 6th gen. I actually like it, it's different than everyone elses, but it's usless to me.

OMG you bought one, how much did it cost you?

Re: weird ass manifold
 
I don't remember, less than $300 including shipping, $285 I think... at the time other brands were selling for about the same and were not AC compatible like this one is supposed to be, so I thought I was doing ok. :-\
Bought it from the same guy on eBay in the first link too.
