Default keep the revhard manifold or trash it?

i am currently running a revhard manifold on my car. im planning to get the krb ramhorn manifold but i was wondering if i will feel a big different over the krb? are the revhard manifolds junk anyway?

is your motor internally stock? If so then you should be fine with that mani. i would only get a better one if you a.) Need more flow for a big HP setup, b.) have boost creep issues, c.) want a blingin looking equal length.

Remember you will need to modify your down pipe maybe harge pipes. Also dont buy a crumby mani, thats what i did and i paid to get rewelded twice. Revhard mani's are not junk, ay least you know it wont break at 80+ on the highway.

seems like you have a nice setup, id run the drap mani and save up for a new turbo setup. seems lke your FMIC, mani might be holding you back a bit...

I would also look into those new BB SC turbos too


here is a bad pic of mine, i should be for sale soon too.

well what are you plans? are you planning on upgrading more parts and looking for more hp? if you just wanna look bling bling, then get something new. if you don't wanna hassle with tune and change, then don't.

what does that tread do?! telling how the revhard manifold is great? it's near 3 years old.

my personal opinion. go for an upgrade. you might just feel a slight difference, but you might just like the change. join the bandwagon already your block is ready for it.

wow. you sir, are one jackass.

"errr what does that thread do?"

hm.... lets see...

It got us the record back in '99 which we held for about 8 months. Never cracked, never boost crept. </TD></TR></TABLE>

what it simply does it what every other thread about a good manifold does. in this case, lilcivic over here wants to know if his revhard is junk.. soo.. A CAR RUNNING SUB 10 SECOND QUARTERMILE TIMES WAS USING IT WITHOUT PROBLEMS.

so the thread just gives an opinion that the manifold is a good manifold, not very probable to crack or to create boost creep as suggested by tony1.

sorrrrry mister the thread is near 3 years old. people have stated the revhard is better than the drag, but everyone has their own opinion on cast manifolds. i was just merely asking you what your point through the thread was, it was title "tubular or cast?" which is to pick

why don't you consider an equal length manifold. unless you think it's out of your budget.
