I am assuming since most companies (Including Full-Race, WORKS) offer coating BEFORE shipment of the item, that they do not need to be heat cycled before coating.

buschur's test showed that the full race gave 8whp over his ported one, and when an o2 was added, i think it was 10-15whp over his. My buddy made almost 30whp w/ the rnr manifold, and full-race was tested better, i don't know where you get 15whp, its more like 30-35whp.

Those welds are industrial art. So perfect. Like a stack of coins fell gently.

If those are done by hand, I want to shake that hand as the person is a master. If machine done...still very cool.

This comment is RETARTED.......I bet you say the same thing to those who go with a big fancy DVD touch screen head unit and keep the stock speakers...."Thats dumb, waste all that money and it sounds the same"......i can visualize that plain as day. Isnt buying somthing to be different reason enough to buy somthing???? Who gives a flying F*&^ what you think. His car will ALWAYS look better than yours.............and have 10 times the class. Some people make a little more money than others and the others always get bent over it. I would suggest you go to school and move up a notch. Then you can feel what its like being dogged on....(i dont even know why i bother on here sometimes) Its always about the haves and have nots........

Good choice on the manifold! Full-Race really knows what they are doing.

After putting it on you will never want to try another, trust me.

I've had the Pro-Stock header with HPC coating for just under a year now. I also had Full-Race build a custom exhaust pc. for me. Both are superior in quality. No discoloration, flaking, or cracking.

Wow that's nice. If I could afford one I'd definately have myself one. "15hp" would be a nice gain for me

heat coating it would make the manifold have less heat on it and keep it from cracking and make it look nicer in the long run but for a grand the ***** furizzucker betta have a life time warrenty!!!

Someday when I can afford it I definately want to get the full race
The GT SPec mani looks pretty nice, not quite as pimp as this one, but its like 3-400 bucks less... FYI most of the headers that end up cracking are due to the extra weight and stress of having an aftermarket O2 housing without hangers, so the manifold ends up having to support a lot more extra weight. I dont know which O2 housings have hangers besides the Works O2, but thats why I'm going to go with them, despite the price ($450). That way I can feel pretty safe bolting on an aftermarket exhaust mani without as much risk for cracking, especially if its quality like the full race
