I guess another $600+ for a manifold wouldn't seem like much if you already had $10k - $15k in a motor like some guys do Lol.

im about to have that much in a motor and 5 speed manual tranny when i get out of boot camp. i just dont see loosin 50 degrees of heat and maybe a second more spool up worth 450$ now if it dropped them 150 or more and gained 15 hp and spooled alot quicker id give it more thought.

when you do buy a manifold take your stock one off and sit it next to the new one ... you will clearly see why they cost so much
