Personally, I`ve seen it 3-4 times (friends). You should be fine. I`d upgrade other parts of the kit before the manifold.

I thought I heard drag manifold's weren't that great? I've read it on here a couple of times. Can anyone clear this up for me? I was going to buy one and once I get the money I was stilling going to, but after I read that drag manny's were great I changed my mind.

Someone set me straight.

If you need an new manifold, I would not buy an DRAG. Mine got after 1 year some little hair cracks. But if you are low on budget and have the manifold already it can take up to 400whp I guess.

It's your typical manifold... not really an all out race manifold. It works well though.

I would replace it eventually. And it sucks having to shave your block for the turbo housing...

the drag manifold works. i'll make as much hp as you'll need. the problem with the manifold is that the design is outdated, it cracks over time, and the wastegate placement isn't the best.....but it will do the job if that is what you have. 2-3 years ago or more the choices were no where near as plentiful as they are now(full race, inlinepro, lovefab, a couple of rev hards, sfp, spark/obx/nu image, the list goes on and on......) the drag is not the best and not the worst. if you already have one, fine, but if your buying it new, look into another manifold. but either way.....you can make 400 hp with it no problem.

true it sucks having to shave the block..but for some reason the drag manifold fits in good. Thats why i don't want to replace the manifold.....but thanks for all the comments, thats just takes off one more thing on my too buy list
