Default So the time has come to buy an equal length manifold...

I haven't posted on the tech forums lately, but I think LoveFab or someone started delaying everyones orders, and/or totally flaked on his customers. Then the CRFab thing where he didn't return people's money or send them manifolds. So forgive me for being out of the loop.

So, I'm wondering what reputable company is out there still offering lifetime warranty manifolds aside from Full-Race, of course. Anyone out there with a proven record of excellent customer service and honors their manifolds?

I need an equal length manifold, and 3" A/C and P/S compatible downpipe. Not sure if they even exist, lol.

It's for a B series engine.

Spoolin performance all the way. Great customer service and great product. Do a search and you will hear nothing bad about him or his products.

BTW I have his Quick4 ac mani sitting in my closet. I cant wait to use it.

I've heard good things about them. I'll keep them in mind.

I know a good bit of the manufacturers post on this sub forum, so that's why I made the post here...

Neukin looks like a good lower cost high quality choice. Lifetime Warranty and he can make is AC compatible with DP etc.

Full-Race would always be my first recommendation, but since you crossed them off the list I would say check out peakboost ( http://www.phoenixturbo.com ) or spoolin performance ( http://www.spoolinperformance.com ) never heard a bad thing about either one.

Hmmm... I just started looking at Nuekin's website. Stuff looks top notch.

Edit: It doesn't say if the stuff is A/C or P/S compatible... blah.

he definitely has one that is ac/ps compatible. You just have to cut part of the PS bracket I believe

I shy away from tubular manifolds hardcore. Sure you don't want to run a cast and make it work? The evo guys are still making good power on cast units. Cast is a great comprimise for a street car (your mentioning AC). Everybody I know who runs their car hard on the street breaks tubular units no matter the manufacturer, material, or cost.

But I know, honda guys and their tubular units etc..... The honda shops have done a good job of advertising a product that only marginally outperforms a well designed cast unit.

Nuken is good for the price IMO. He can make ac and ps compatible manifolds as well as 3" DP's.

You are only interested in non-ac setups'?

i bought one of josh's equal lengths. it was well put together, and the price was very decent (cheaper than inline pro and not much more than a top notch log manifold) took about 2 or so weeks to get but christmas was in there.

But he's not A/C compatible. If he is, his website isn't updated.

Personally I think it comes down to personal pref. FR/Neukin/RLD/Spoolin/Phoenix all make good manifolds. Neukin and Spoolin have some cool *** lookin manifolds that I'm sure make some good numbers.

The only part that could use improvement on that manifold is my stop point ,Wich is normaly on the bottom or the back so you cant see it. But you know what Iam only human and do make slip ups once in a while but Iam get better every day and yes you can pm me about the a/c compatable manifold and there are pics of it in my threads, Thanks
