i have an evo 9 mr and being a full time student and trying to work and put some money into the evo at the same time i have been searching for ways to get power. i have looked into getting an exhaust manifold and i came across the megan. it is extremely cheap and i am not so sure if "you pay for what you get" when it comes to this also. any body have input on what manifold to get or is it actually just a waste with what mods i have, which are in my sig

 

my sig for some reason isnt showing up idk why

 

a lot of them crack but some don't. Just port and coat the stock one is what everyone will tell you.

 

what gains would i see from a ported stock one

 

you see the best gains on a stock ported manifold... i had a megan manifold and if it isnt coated it starts looking like ****...

 

I'm in the same boat, but I have finally decided to get my stocker ported. I'm gettin mine put on when I get it back and have time to install it... I'll tell you how I like it.. Cant wait

 

How much gains can be seen with a ported stock manifold, compaired to a standard unported manifold?

 

If you wanna go cheap, port and coat the stocker. If you really want a tubular manifold, go with a higher end brand, like Shearer, JMFab, Full-Race, ETS and last but not least, 4WS/JesseB's "Mona Lisa"(which is what i'm going to run).

These higher end manifolds will yield more power than the lower end manifolds and ported stocker, will resist cracking and have great warranties.

The ported stocker is cheap and you'll never have to worry about it cracking. You decide.

 

i say get a ported manifold if you must be cheap and wanna save cash. if your looking for real power and want to see gains itune is right. Cant own a evo and be cheap all the time on every part seriously

 

I bought my evo with a megan manifold on it and it cracked at the base of the manifold. I strongly suggest getting your stock one ported or saving your money to get a quality one. Go to tab-fabrication.com. These guys build manifolds for a good price.

 

Yea don't even waste time or money on the Megan. Worst mod I ever did to my car.

 

Where do you find the mona llisa mani at? I've been searching everywhere but cant find them...

 

get a toxic-fab one , im thinking about getting a megan exhaust manifold to , ive got the megan 02 housing which is a nice peice.

 

+1

 

Have dc manifold, not sure about hp gain, but this thing never cracked at least for me.
