best turbo manifold

Ive been trying to search this but there really isnt a thread on it. Consenses on most thread is that the stock ported manifold outperforms most junk out there. However full race and ETS make a good turbo manifold however these arent product of good value both are around 900 USD.

Any good manifold out there around 500 USD? or best bang for the buck.

eathier get a $900 manifold.. ets, buschur ect... or just get a ported stock manifold. From what i read and heard they are good for about 550whp.. and if you Daily Drive your car stock manifold will give you more TQ then a tubular one anyways and it is $800 cheaper then tubular

I will be receiving my toxicfab manifold today and hopefully installing & testing it against a MAP ported stock manifold before the weekend...

Last exhaust manifold shootout that was done had the Shearer outperforming everything by over 15hp peak (not sure about the rest of the curve).

Since then there has been a TON of other options, 4WS Mona Lisa, DN performance, MAP, ETS, Toxicfab, Fortune Auto Omega and a few others I'm forgetting (Shearer may be making a front facing stock frame turbo manifold). Tons of options. Until another exhaust mani shootout is done there is no way to know whats BEST. Do your homework on all the the available ones, figure out what your willing to spend and pick your poison.......They are all good alternatives.

If you don't want to go tubular then go ported stock for cheaper. I have a OEM manifold I'm selling for cheap. LOL.

Really, well I am a design engineer and as a bonus I worked with full exhaust systems for a year. Maybe we can work something out.
