The thread is about crp so let's keep to crp. Now full race is bomb don't get me wrong but crp also makes manifolds with lifetime warranty's as well.

Not even gonna start do your research on somebody before you know what they say.

There are alot of things that manifold company's do that i don't agree with. To tell me I don't know i suppose your gonna design my manifold for me?

Apologies for getting off topic


I just don't agree with the way that manifold was designed and the way the tubing pack is routed. Chances are (measuring it pending) that it is not very close to being equal length

eLusive ek4 is a strange fellow talk about internet tough guy who has a serious problem. Check this conversation out....
(6:56 PM 8/19/2004) eLusive ek4: I don't even know? talking ****?

I simply gave my opinion of the manifold and offered an alternative selection no need for you immature response.

As far not knowing, thats far from the truth considering i design headers all day long for top race teams

Oh what do you do for a living by the way?
(7:09 PM 8/19/2004) vtecrob16a: I think you did, state something with no knowledge..Don't start getting tough guy on the internet. You must be a real tool to take time out to instant message me
(7:16 PM 8/19/2004) eLusive ek4: No not at all and i'm not being aoug all how d have no real knowledge ?

Can you explain to me how a merge collector works? what are they key elements of manifold design please enlighten me?
(7:52 PM 8/19/2004) vtecrob16a: dude you have serious problems,you can't spell..so I really can't understand you...Jason does my stuff and I don't like people talking bad about him ,this is the end of the conversation for me. You're right I don't design headers,I pay people to
(8:01 PM 8/19/2004) eLusive ek4: It's not the problem of i cant spell my typing needs work didnt know that was a serious problem

I never said anyhting bad either i said i wouldn't use that manifold i don't care who jason is. Pay people to design a good header then.

Don't tell me i don't have knowledge when your in my area of this industry do your homework next time

alway's better to check oil lever when engine is cold... oil is cold so no thermal dillatation and no oil in head or oil passages so you don't miss read and add too much after this.

just not a good arguement to discard a prolly great performing manifold

It looks cool but it can't possibly be the ideal configuration. For one thing the volume of the manifold is twice what it needs to be. It may have been designed to perfect exhaust pulsing by providing equal volume in each primary, but all more bends do it hurt pulsing. (The velocity at the outside of a bend increases relative to the inside, and does not immediately equalize when it straightens out)

Looks like ALOT of work to fab it up. I wouldn't make them either if they weren't flying off the shelves.
