I think Boostfed is running the top mount manifold and he is making somewere are the 670whp range..... good manifold if you want to spend the money. to full-race

Boostfed has a regular style full race manifold and makes 676 on a b16. I am debating on getting the top mount if my friend comes up with the money for my full-race manifold and down pipe. Jeff from full race said the spool with the top mount versus there regular manifold might be like 600 rpms earlier but most of the power will be made up top. I think he told me something like maybe a 50-60whp difference. dont quote me on that

remember, alot has to do with both the design of the manifold AND the huge downpipe

how does the hood manage all the heat as far as the manifold being that close to it? Or do you guys use it at the track and not on the street?

Looks like braided PTFE lined hose, with a thermal sleeve around it.

we use this manifold on the street, it is on my daily driven civic, buck's civic, many daily drivers.

the manifold is a top mount so the runners are on the bottom, very far away from the hood, so there wont be any probs

i have been running the manifold over a month now and this is by far the best design i think full-race has came up with and its very streetable no heat issues what so ever. the downpipe fitment is the very best u can ask for a easier way to make a manifold hanging the turbo is so simple
