The PRC flows much better in the midrange & up top.... you should make 5-10whp gains properly tuned. without tuning you should make about the same power with smaller gains 2-5whp

Just like Mike said. Runners are bigger in diameter ID&OD, should be able to see a nice increase when properlly tuned.

the rbc manifold is the best manifold for a k motor.. it has much smaller runners and flows much better than the others. I had a k20z1 with bolt ons and gained 12 whp after replacing my PRB with the RBC.

i don't know about ur rbc talk. did u tune ur motor with the prb equipped or did u only tune after the rbc was installed? this is usually why people think the rbc is a vast improvement
