Yep, I think the guy who made it originally, was posting up here about it. Back then the two halves were bolted together, and he wanted a fortune for it. If it works, it may not be a bad deal for $150, what with it being welded and coated now. Plus, it's been around long enough, that if there were some downside to it, you probably see a lot of hate about it in the forums.

The website makes some pretty strong claims about the manifold, but I didn't see where they back it up with any charts or real data. Also, it's not equal length, but the runners look pretty smooth and straight. Should flow much better than a log, but worse than a ram style.

For $150, I'd probably try it as a budget solution.

Yeah, you can grill hotdogs on the top of it. I'd honor any HMT member to do this, of course. :y

equal length is silly, and how would that not flow the same, if not more than a ram horn. more tube = more surface area to cause friction from the exhaust gas and more area for the exhaust gas to lose heat energy. top mounts, even more rediculus.

He was on D-series.org not too long ago and I was nicely explaining how he missed the boat and no one would buy that ---- for the crazy money he wanted at the time.
