Better provide at least 50whp gains and hundreds of rpm faster spool up for that price

Edit: 50whp+ gains over my AMS F1

Driven innovations designed and makes this manifold. All the cast parts are out sourced and all the CNC parts are made in house at DI.

This is not a slap on manifold and make mega power unless your manifold is garbage. This won't be tested on a single setup because the manifold is built to accommodate nearly all setups. You have to "tune" the manifold to optimize YOUR setup and power band. This gives the buyer many options and not just one option like manifolds on the market today.

It good for a all-in-one manifold, but if that's the price I doubt anyone would buy it.

the quote i got was for everything, manifold, 70mm tb, fuel rail, plus everything needed to run stock iacv, tps, and map sensor. this is clearly a jenvey setup though with the only difference i see is vacuum ports on the manifold.

You might want to know what your talking about before you spew anymore crap. Driven innovations makes this manifold not jenvey. I also know this because I watch his CNC machine cut the parts out. The price you got was not from driven innovations and this is a way better deal then anywhere else for what your getting. If you do not like it. Do not buy it its that simple.

im not here to fight all im saying is if you look at the jenvey link i posted you will see the exact setup you posted (minus the stock tb and modified plenum for vacuum ports).on the site you can even buy it in seperate parts. what you show pictures of is a modified jenvey setup.

not trying to call you out just look at jenveys site and all the parts are on there. by the way my price was from a jenvey dealer in the UK i have no idea what DI prices are.

I know your not but your not reading. Again Jenvey does not make this. Driven does. What don't you understand. I don't care what is on there site. You keep saying how this is the jenvey manifold. Which it is not. Actually driven is driven and jenvey is jenvey minus the castings. How could it be jenveys setup if tom makes the parts him self and out sources the 2 cast parts. This is a driven innovations manifold designed and built by driven. How many more times do I have to say it.

because the cast runners, cast upper manifold,and fuel rail are jenvey

looks like your pics use a different lower plenum (which is prolly what you say DI is making.)i hope DI doesnt try and sell this off as something they designed because it is clearly not 100% theirs.

i was looking into the jenvey a couple months back thats why i saw the parts immediately.

do you understand what i am saying now?

You are blind. Look at the pics I posted. Everything but 2 cast pieces are build at driven innovations. Not just a plenum.
VERYTHING but 2 cast pieces.

I was showing what driven has made. That's it forvme I am done in here.

apparently you cant see the jenvey stamp on the cast runners. its the same one thats on their tb's.



maybe you shoulda let DI unveil this as you have no clue what your looking at.

ill stop posting as everyone can decide for themselves. enjoy your thread.

I think what Dan is trying to say is Tom at DI redesigned this manifold. its clear they both use the same casting parts. DI's manifold only uses 2 of the castings which are from Jenvey. Tom redesigned the other features and built them in house.

AFAIK and from what Tom told me the DI manifold is a lot more flexible when tuning then what the Jenvey one can offer and can fit the evo's many different combination setups much better then what Jenvey offers. and it is much cheaper. other then the 2 cast pieces Tom does indeed make everything else to Tom's specs and designs.
