Those look real nice!
How much sense does it make to upgrade the manifold for a stock turbo?

Speaking of that I've always wanted to try and run twin series4 turbos...

The HKS manifold I also believe is no longer produced. It's also made by a company that sells millions of products a year. It also appears to have MUCH smaller runners then this product. And it doesn't look half as nice...
Thread/product bashing only works when you're comment makes sense.

If all goes to plan I will have a dyno comparison versus an SS autochrome unit by this weekend. In the future I would like to do a comparison involving the HKS cast unit, but I have to wait until a customer comes into the shop with that unit on his car already and previously dynoed.
As far as the manifold goes the specs are:
3mm tubing wall( .121")
Sturdy braced flanges( .470")
X-rayed for crack detection prior to thermal coating
Thermal coating done 100% in and out
13" runners
Available in any wastegate combination, hks 40mm standard
For now they are only available coated, I have 6 that are coated
As soon as those are all sold they will be avialable uncoated( $ 700 shipped)

I got to meet 1Revvin7 @ PRI in december. I got to see the manifolds that he produces, really, really top-notch stuff on display there. All of the welds (inside and out) were very nicely done, and that coating that's on them is pretty amazing, too. I want to get his internal engine coating done on my next engine, that's pretty sweet 
(Am I allowed to talk about that?)
