i have a z6 n/a s2 pro series manifold and just switched it on m old turbo z6 hatch (had the stock mani) and i noticed a better throttle response and i thought it was better. I've heard stories of them hurting cars that was straight n/a. I wouls say go y8 manifold. With the s2 manifold you need longer vacuum and coolant lines because the manifold is longer and under acceleration it can rub against the firewall
