i have no idea why he machined grooves into the manifold. all that does is make underhood temps WAYYY hotter... i remember someone on hondatech posting a pic of george foreman with that manifold

"george foremans on the go grill" rofl it was funny

I don't think I would want that manifold for a turbocharger. All the fins on the manifold would just tend to lower the exhaust temperature before it reached the turbo -- cooler exhaust = less turbine power, more lag. I would imagine underhood temperature would be high as well.

also if im not mistaken its a crappy deisgn... sticks out way to far and will most likely have the turbo hit the radiator, looks nice though
