Any dyno/reviews of the mini-me manifold? (lovefab)
I was going to go full-race..... I just think its more manifold than i will ever need (although reeeaaallyy pretty)
My goals are somewhat reasonable.... i'd take 300whp. I dont want a "log" style, and cast is definatley out of the question. I know many people make great powa on their drag manni's and such, but its got to be tubular for me.

I have one that is similar to the design and it works great spools my big t3/t67 fairly fast considering the size of the turbo. No dyno's yet either.

Re: Any dyno/reviews of the mini-me manifold? (Tactic$)
I have two customers over 400whp. One w/just 10psi, another with 16 on a blown turbo. The manifolds work great, and are probably the best quality manifold you can buy for the price.

the collectors pretty tiny. in essence itll work like a log manifold cuz theres no reaaal collector.
he calls it the mini me and thinks he got the idea from cody
but really its a copy of a revhard welded stage 2 manifold .. dont think he knows that yet though.

How much boost do you spool up to in 3rd gear and at what rpm??

Re: Any dyno/reviews of the mini-me manifold? (newgsr)
I hit full boost in third, spikes to 10 and back down to 7. Right now I can not give an accurate reading in boost spool, since the program I am running is really conservative as far as the ignition is conserned, so right now full boost hits at around 6k but once I burn my new chip I'll def post it up on this thread.

The official name for that manifold of mine now is The Elf. Also yes I know it is simular to the revhard short tubular but is actually shorter because it doesnt have to the added 45 degree bends.

Re: Any dyno/reviews of the mini-me manifold? (newgsr)
im using the mini-me ac manifold. It actually spools my t3/t4 real quick... spools at 2900 full boost at 3400-3500. Its a bitch to fit it in the car with the way the turbo is positioned. I was told to use a half size radiator with the manifold but i didnt want to so i took a grinding wheel and went crazy and i got a Full size all aluminum racing radiator to work with the setup.

It's a t3/t67 full-race spec, w/ stage 5 wheel, .63 a/r, 3" exhaust and dp, stock 81mm bore on a stock type r motor. I'm thinking once I tune my car, I see no reason why I shouldn't hit full boost a lil under 5k. I should know something very soon.
