Default Should i get a new tubular mani or just keep this one. Will power

or performance hurt.. Here is my mani, i bought it for pretty cheap around 500 but i was hoping it would of been built MUCH better but i guess you get what u pay for.. So i had a car-bite bit and went to town. I smoothed everything, now i still want a new one but am i looking at any more power if i do switch










AFTER, looks better in person lol, Its all smooth transitions

For 500 you could have got a manifoold from peakboost for 475 at one point but that special is gone. ITs now 599 but still a good deal. Look at the quality.

yours looks fine to me. welds look OK, inside is smooth now, fitup on the pipes looks OK..what were you hoping to gain with a different one?
