Overall I'm very pleased, specially for £150!
150 is sweet mate . There isn't massive flow around the edges of a manifold. Do some reading about lamina flow if your interested, and Reynolds number. With a viscous liquid flow in a pipe is said to range from zero at the pipe walls to a maximum at the pipe centre. Obviously air isn't a viscous liquid but the same rules apply. Flow is less at the manifold floor and sides and far greater nearer the centre. Hence the use of velocity stacks. interesting stuff really.
