Does anyone here own a neukin manifold...on their teg ls motor?? if so whats your opinion on it

 

someone help me out here ..does anyone have a neukin manifold on their car period

 

A friend of mine in Indy has the manifold. The only complaint I've seen is that it was originally designed for VTEC motors, so the manifold runners hit the valve cover grommets on the exhaust side of the valve cover.

That's all I can say about it since he did most of the turbo install.

The PeakBoost manifold on the otherhand was a pain in the *** to install. The mounting holes are all crooked on the flange and the fitment onto the exhaust manifold studs was difficult and liked to get hung up on the threads.

 

i would also like to know more on this subject

The two studs on the LS cover are not a problem now, there are some issues on older manifolds where the valve cover has those two tabs molding into the cast.

Now the manifold is next to perfect and no problems come up, the ports at the head flange are oval and this makes the nuts that go onto the top stud above runner 1 and 4 a pain to put on but you will have that with any manifold this design.

But it only takes likes 3 min to put and bolt the manifold to the head, those two nuts are just a bit tricky you need mad turbo mani skillz.

thanks IN VTEC for the links and support

 

Hmm...now I'm comparing this one to the 1-Fab top mount one I previously wanted to get. Anyone can compare these two out for me, besides he Neukin being about $300 less? I don't care about a/c. Thanks.
