Nic Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I did a before and after dyno test of the stainless steel tubular manifolds I produce. First Dyno = 191hp (down on stock power, should have been closer to 220hp, if not slightly more with mods below). This was with stock cast manifolds, 1st decat pipe and RSR exhaust. Second Dyno = 198hp (again still down on stock power) This was with stainless steel tubular manifold (which also replaces first cat and RSR exhaust. The dyno runs showed a gain of 7hp with the tubular manifold fitted, but as the car had some problems and was down on stock power initially they weren't conclusive. On a healthier car making stock or slightly more than stock power, then I'd estimate around 8-12hp increase. Here are a few pics of the manifold http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/8473/p1030161sa4.jpg http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1831/p1030162uk1.jpg http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/7632/dsc00305dl3.jpg http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/1738/dsc00307xs0.jpg http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/3957/dsc00312gm4.jpg http://img83.imageshack.us/img83/1491/dsc00313hh4.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
