Man that's a shitty pic of the shorty; Cody really needs to update those pictures.

Both should flow pretty similar

the drag will flow better....a SS log might hold more heat. i think they're both pretty equal.

the drag has a shitty placement of the wastegate though...so i'd probably go with the log.

the drag will "flow" better, but you must realize that a log manifold is not meant to flow. It is based on pressure, not flow.

so when looking at a log manifold, you should not consider the "flow" because there is none.

BTW, i have a shorty

Yes they are definately costly. I sprung the extra bucks for one though. They just look so damn sweet too.

Hybrid901 pulled 580hp with a Log mani.

I'm shooting for similar #'s with my setup, and one of Cody's Logs...

Cody said his would support 500whp, no problem. I believe him. That pic is really old, he now uses different matrial and it looks ALOT better/cleaner. I paid $335 for mine and it was worth it! WG placement rocks on the shorty too. I am pleased with mine, and I havent even put it on yet!

Here is the manifold Cody made for me back in Jan. It is out of the new material and I think it looks much better.

You guys need to understand that when it comes to a log manifold, they all flow like crap. They are not designed to work off of flow. So asking how the flow of a log mani is, is pointless, it does not matter. A log manifold works off of pressure that is created in the manifold. so flow in a log mani, doesnt really matter.

Yep, you guys pretty much hit it on the head. Hybrid901 proved you dont need a tubular manifold to make power. Granted, if he had a tubular manifold w/a properly designed collector, he would DEFINATELY make more power/torque.
Im running a Shorty on my SRT4, daily driven. I didnt even backpurge during welding because I was in a hurry to get it done(daily driver, need to run manis to UPS), its been running strong for 3k miles w/EGTs above 1400 anytime Im moving.
Ill let the video speak for itself :

The drag will flow more by far but for low power and a bit cheaper u can go with the log style.
