Gerry's (fabtech) manifolds are far better than the KMS brick, but are
1. extremely expensive (the side mount is like 900 the top mount is 1300ish)
2. very hard to get (he's picky with customers)
3. take a long time to get
Gerry is a busy guy and those manifolds are EXTREMELY labor intensive.

In all honesty, I think you need to stop spending money on that thing and figure out how to not keep breaking it (like finding another tuner) before you dump more money into it. You should be in preventative mode, not drop money making it faster mode.

yea...

i know, but since im already building it, might as well build it right instead of waiting and fixing it again later...

i've already found another tuner and from his previous customers i heard he does a great job......hopefully...ha...

i just dont wanna crack the stock intake manifold when i boost high...
