No, these manifolds are a bit of a pain in the arse really and pretty pointless on a standard engine.

Why would you spend that much on that from the states - even with exchange rate, delivery & import tax from the states to the uk thats expensive

Why not speak to someone like Ian Howell from Area Six about one of his custom inlets? Much better value for money, quality & better gains as well

Do you realise it's going to cost around £1200 by the time you've paid shipping, import duty and vat on that?
