Just wondering what make of manifold you guys recommend for my 8? Also have any of you come across this company Home - XS Power I used them a while ago when they were based in America for a stainless manifold for my Civic Jordan and found it to be pretty good quality at a reasonable price.

simple, you can fit anything as long as its not sold on e bay :)

they are rubbish mate. due to the heat produced and weight of the turbo these cheap manifolds from XS power, toyosports, japspeed etc just keep cracking due to such thin poor quality metal

Lovely looking manifold like a piece of art work... And if you was a payed up member over the road you could get one at a discounted price not much but it all helps.. It's a group buy thing.. Lol

Haha that looks amazing!! The more I see it the more I want it, can this go with standard radiators and fans? What kind of power increase do you think it gives?

Thanks for all in the input guys!

Yes they are standard frame so direct swap. Powerwise I'm not sure but aid the turbo to spool up around 200 rpm lower than standard, so quicker spool means win win. Oh and not forgetting the looks.
