I did get some feedback from some friends who build manifolds say that the runner size would help let the gases expand a little before getting to the small t3 twin scroll footprint and that this manifold would be better suited for a t4 setup but that it would spool like crazy for what it is and sure as crap it spools very nicely.
I can see where they'd get that idea from, but that's not really how it works.

The turbine and turbine housing are going to be your main restriction, and anything you can do to speed up the gases before they reach the turbine is only going to help spool without hurting your top end unless you make the primaries extremely small.

I've never ever ever ever seen a 4G that needs larger than 1.68" (Schedule 10 1.5") ID runners for the exhaust manifold. There are guys making 1000whp on Schedule 10 1.5" pipe. I would recommend 1.46 ID (Schedule 10 1.25") for anyone running less than 650whp.
