DNP exhaust manifold

Anyone here running the DNP exhuast manifold? They look very nicely built with good quality, very reasonable price too. I'm looking for something that will help the turbo to spool up a little faster and better responds, do you guys thing this tubular manifold will help? People that are running with tubular manifold, please give me some idea and comments before I pull the trigger. Thanks!

Here is a pic of the manifold

The piece is a complete bolt on with a perfect fit. It's definitely good for at least 500rpm quicker on spoolup. Sound screams up top and ofcourse the bling factor is there The manifold comes highly polished w/ an almost chrome finish but after about a day, it turns to a cool rainbow shade.

I like the piece a lot.

I have it installed on my Evo and it is very nice. I'm very happy with it, it's worth 10-15 whp at least. Mine is jet hot coated gray. No issues with fit at all.

What about the issue of non cast turbo manifolds are crack prone? I always hear from the old schoolers that header style manifolds always end up cracking ?? wrong , or right?

They look real cool when they get hot. Bright *** red! Some guy down it portland had one. Dynoed pretty good with it. I did a little better without one however and I had the same mods. Har Har. Anyhow Shiv said something about it being able to increase the efficiency of the turbo or some jazz because it helped reduce knock a little bit he thought. He could be a little less conservative when pulling timing. I wonder if the same would be true for a ported mani or o2 housing.
