i had a rev hard stg 2 kit back in the day. i had a 92 SI hatch with an ls swap. it went 12.4 on drag radials. the only upgrades were a clutch and a 3inch exhuast. the fuel system consisted of check valves + FMU. lol.... those were the days (this was back in 2000)

Ive been running a rev hard log manifold for years. A matter of fact, It came from a kit that was bought in 1998. No holes, no issues what so ever. I'm putting down 505hp with this log on a sohc!

I cant believe they still sell these. Prob hasnt changed in 10 years. I had one back in the day too. The kit is decent quality but I had a terrible experience with Myles and Revhard.

Wrong, they have changed a lot.

-The down pipe is no longer flanged on the other end
-The down pipe no longer has an O2 bung
-The vortech bov has been replaced by ebay greddy type s FAKE bov
-The amount of metal poured into the casts have been reduced to the point that nearly every other manifold cracks

They were decent for back in the day, and they would have been OK if they held there quality but now they are simply crap.

lets not forget all the piping used in these kits are mild steel which rust pretty quick (not pretty and very heavy) and the whole fmu idea well, need i go there? It's 2009 for God's sake.
