Default OBX intake manifold

I was browsing around the net and i came across this intake manifold, for a d16a6 its a polished OBX, it looks like a decent design, has anyone had anyexperience with this manifold? How can it be compared to, say, a d16y8 intake manifold? The obx one is pertty cheap (around 100 shipped) any feedback on this piece?

they are junk. i actually ordered one to sell, but ended up giving it to my brother, because they sent it for the wrong model. we put it on his car, and he lost power. it looks nice in the picture, but you get to look at it in person and feel and see it and its a junk part. don't waste your money.

Did any one of these guys dyno the OBX mani? The larger runner may make it feel slower but have more top end? Just wondering.
