Do you think we can get the documentation on what method was used for measuring the flow on the manifolds. Perhaps we can independently do similar tests on the stock manifold and perhaps mild porting on the stock manifold. If we can use the same method then the grain is valid. The independent tests will demonstrate the validity and reliability of the manifold. The initial production of this manifold is beautiful. How do we know the workmanship of production quality will be consistant? I have seen some interesting pictures on the net about production quality. On the other hand, not knowing the true grain on hp. The manifold is about $1,800, standalone is about $2,400 plus $1,000 install and tune. Throttle body and other misc parts like cables, wires ($500) and most importantly how would this manifold fit and behave on a live engine is still unknown. If power to be grain, what part of the power band it will be?

If we can do the math, its about $5,700. So the price of the manifold is just the initial cost, not the total cost. If we can port the stock manifold and say it increase 10% to 15% for about few hundred dollars is well worth it. What do u guys think?
