Sheepey manifolds??

Anyone running a sheepey exhaust manifold or know how the quality is? Just see a lot of them mostly on Hondas but they do offer a evo 8/9 exhaust manifold
Comments?

I have never even heard of sheepey manifolds lol. So, I'm assuming they may not really be used in the evo community. I could be wrong though.

I'm skeptical because it's pretty hard to beat a fully ported OEM piece.

They are close knock offs of Full Race's manifolds. That first pic is my friend Jacob's car. The driver's side runner is wayyyyy shorter than the others though.

It kills me that full race is barely more expensive but at least they have a reputation

Yeah I had a full race manifold and loved it, I sold it so I could start a new build, came across the sheepey manifolds and I just haven't ever seen there stuff on any evo and the runners look off to me... And the quotes just seemed way low

I have seen many of their manifolds on other platforms and the work is top notch, they dont really skip any corners on quality, runner design on the evo is another story, but I can pretty much vouch for quality and they do stand behind their product.

If you're worried about price talk to Ron from JDL Auto Design. They make awesome pieces and I got mine for $657 shipped. The port work is really well done and all the runners are equal.
