blox manifold better than Drag manifold
I have a drag turbo kit that I bought for a really good price over the summer and will be geting it installed when income tax time rolls around (im so broke right now). i have heard how bad the drag manifold sucks and spotted a Blox manifold for sale for like 185 brand new. would this manifold be an improvement over the Drag?would it work with the turbo that came with the Drag kit (turbonetics t3/t04e 57 trim)?Will i be able to run AC/PS with the blox?

logs suck because 1 and 4 fire directly at eachother and need to take a 90 deg turn into the turbo inlet. .. anything with some sort of a collector is better than a log....

and per that logic meutek is even better than blox and about half the price, i made 317whp on one easily, ive since moved on to a ramhorn for other reasons, but my meutek was good to me never had ANY boost creep problems, not at 7psi not at 20psi.

I didnt ask for a comparison between logs and other style manifolds...

Why is Meutek better? I can't see much of a difference in placement. Also, why did you only make 317whp at 20psi?

317whp was at 14psi on 91 octane (and 4 bent valves). and i say the meutek is better cause the WG placement is right in the middle, the blox is slightly offset, also meutek has a velocity stack thingy inside to help direct cyliner 1 and 4 down and not against each other.

im suggesting you get a manifold that is half the price, and one i feel is better, and i explained why i thought it was better. im helping you save money and gain performance, what more do you want? i thought perhaps you might not have been aware of other options.
