    Default High mount log manifolds VS front mount extractors

    hey guys i currently have my car setup with some custom made manifolds we made in the back yard, they're not botch and work good but i got a small exhust leak (it was fine before i changed engine mounts)

    now ive got in contact with someone who makes the manifolds, the question to change the manifolds or just take mine off and make a few small ajustments???

    cost of new manifolds + dump pipe will be round $600-700
    but meh money isnt a issue for me ive nearly got it running ace and i love the highmount position, i dunno guys

    rarevp runs 12.8 @ 11psi with the same setup as me (same design) i run 12psi and i really just dont know,

    mine are just a pain in the ass because a 3" dump pipe has to go where theres already a 2" cross overpipe from the other 3 cyclinders

    heres some pics

    all your supercharger does it whine... its like "OOOOOOOOOWWWWWIEEEEEE"
    atleast my turbo is happy its all like WHOOOOOOOO-Tu-Tu-TU-tu"

    lol on a serious note i think i might just rip my dump pipe off, weld some flexy piping on it to make it fit better and slap it back on i like highmount better over front mount, its more of a show pony

    Yea front mount doesnt look that nice. Your setup is nice.

    Why change manifolds? If you can fix yours then do it.

    How does it run? Have you had it tuned yet?
