No problem. This is a tough crowd, I am careful what I post and say or you end up getting a But I hope to have good luck with the mnanifold. I will post numbers as soon as I get them, and I got mine for less than that BTW. But cost so that's still a good price. It's a nice manifold except for some of the internal welding looks like warts that can be ported out no problem. Good luck again. bQQsted hybrid will chime in on this some day. He's local as well and has had that manifold for over a year, there are about 5-6 guys local that have it and all are happy with it.

Great! But in your original archived thread, I thought you said you bought yours for $475? Very nice setup by the way.

THey go brand new for 475 with the coating....

I know a guy here that has one. I was convinced that I was gonna get one too, but after seeing it in person, the thing disgusts me. The welds are nasty and the pipes don't match up at the welds...

I would spend my money elsewhere.

I have nothing aginst you(2bartypeR), but that manifold is poorly made....it's not even MP that produces them

This is a brand new manifold. And this is forced induction so I understand it's open for debate. No offense taken P.V.

I am going to use another Equal Length mani, from Turbo Performance.

The Turbo Performance one is not a TRUE equal length, the buddy I told you made 40whp with the MP is a dealer for them as well Turbo Performance that is and well he went with the MP sooooooooooooooo.......

I have a friend here in town with a Turbo ITR like mine, and he has the Turbo Performance mani. The way the manifold is made is quite a bit better than MP. Better welds, better placement.

This one
http://www.turbo-performance.com/Pro...28Acura1.8.JPG

Well to each his own, Accuracy Automotive has used these in about 2-3 cars and it works well, we have a stock motored LS that made 290whp with that manifold with Hondata Stage 2B all custom started from scratch maps, car has gone 11.40 it is stripped the guy made his own fiberglass front end and trunk lid and made his own Lexan Glass and Aluminum dash it has been pretty impressive, he did the times before the Fiberglass front end though. The mechanic tuner still prefers the Maximum Performance manifold, we have had good resluts with it, I've ridden in an 2nd Gen Integra with one and boost was nice with the maniffold the shop owner was impressed with it as well and thinking of replacing his custom log style mani with it. People will prolly call BS on the above times and accomplishments but this car can be sseen at the September 28 and 29th Battle of the Imports at Dinwiddy VA, at least I think he is suppsed to run pro class and hopefully hit 10's. We'll see, I think he needs much more power, he weighed in about 1900 before the new lightening, but he runs the manifold with success Turbo Performance BTW. I like my MAximum Performance manifold, I will post results. If not good may look into the Rev Hard or Full Race.
