I have it, i've had it installed for 4 days. I've driven with it, i installed it and overall it's ok. The install is awful, loosen the turbo, and balance the manifold on the studs whilst the bolts are very hard to get on. As far as performance, i'm getting tuned on Tuesday, but the car is running well. The fitment is good. Overall for the price, it's a good in between manifold. In between a $1500 manifold and an ebay manifold.

Have you thought about their smalled manifold? I can tell you not to buy the heat coating, you should but the heat wrap from an external source and wrap it yourself.... I'll post results from Tuesday next week.

That wasn't a shop car sir, that was a local customer of ours. And before his engine failure he was driving it on a daily basis to the best of my knowledge...

wanting to get about 25-40 more whp with new 3.5 intake and map 4 bar sensor but is it worth the cost of a tune, but if i get mani and can get 50- 60 more whp it might be worth the tune.
trying for getting as close to 600 whp on dyno jet numbers of course but 500 whp on mustang dyno same either way but vd tells all!

After being tuned today, the car is running great. During the tuning the manifold help up well, it was glowing, but help up for many pulls. All in all gained around 18hp from the manifold itself and the sound of the car is completely different due to the manifold. the exhaust has a deeper sound when you get on it, but the car idles quieter. I recommend heat wrapping the manifold once you get it. thats what i have done. Overall a good purchase and can't see spending anymore for a "better" manifold, this one handles great. so far.
