Exhaust Manifold

I am looking for a decent Exhaust manifold/header. Something that is not too expensive. Any suggestion on what brand I should get.

If you're on the stock turbo from what i've read they are essentially pointless unless you intend on a bigger stock frame at least. I was looking at the same idea a week or so ago

if you're dead set on one i liked the map short runner manifold a lot. But it wasn't going to gain me anything so i passed. But looks good and has good reviews also.

What kind of power are you making? 93/e85? etc. On a stock turbo like i said it not going to net much for the money and time.

You can gain power with either of the above listed... more with a bigger turbo but that's comes down to your overall goals for the car. You never want to spend money twice if you can avoid it.

Im not looking to upgrade my turbo. I really just want to push around 370hp. But porting the manifold sounds good but my manifold looks damn ugly lol.

What's your mod list? You gonna do pump gas? I swear man at that power level and no plans to up the power it's a waste of time and money when you can reach that level without touching it. Unless its just to help the looks.
