usually u can tell them which turbo u prefer. but if your getting a kit, i'd go with the revhard 2c kit. their manifolds are better then drag..b/c theres no boost creep. the 2c comes with a t3/04e..also make sure u get a tial wastegate.

When exactly does this boost creep occur?
I have had a DRAG manifold for so long and never had a problem with it.
Turbo runs and works fine, deltagate works fine.
Granted I want a better wastegate, so I am in line for the Betagate when it is released.

But what makes the manifold superior?
Frankly I have seen both and there is no huge difference IMO.

Rev Har 2C comes with:

Precision SC Turbo Charger
26x6.5x3 Intercooler
Turbosmart 35mm Wastegate
Manifold will support serious power.

That's why I pick Rev Hard.

It will do 500whp with the right turbo and wastegate.

But I doubt you will see 500whp with a 35mm wastegate, even though the turbosmart is supposed to be able to support 600hp.

The Precision that comes with the kit won't support 500whp either. But you can exchange it for a SC61 for no extra cost. Then it will make 500whp.

We already know the manifold will support the power, since motormatrix made 565whp on a rev hard log manifold.

Atleast the Rev Hard is 50/50 equal length and the welds look half way decent. I have two friends, one with a Rev Hard 2 on an Si and the other with a Drag 3 on an LS. The Drag manifold has 4 totally unequal length runners. They just appear cheaply made. Both come with bolt on intercooler piping no DIY kit like the Max-Rev. I'd say rev-hard but both need Tial 35mm, 440's and Hondata for street just ditch the fmu.

I dunno? I've never seen a 35mm wastegate on a 500+whp Honda.

Why would I have to mention that? What does that have to do with anything?

oh btw, MM didn't make 565whp on nitrous.

on a side note.... I've had the revhard manifold for about 3 years now and so signs of cracks on the manifold. Now my little bro is running my manifold. Just thought I would throw that in there
