Short Runner, keeps Exhaust Gas as hot as possible to enter turbo.
HPC Coated to reduce heat radiated into engine bay, and keep heat in exhaust gas.
Minimal angular flex from wieght of turbo.
Bends kept to a minimum to try and keep direct path to turbo..

Looks like the manifold places the turbo in a new spot with it being higher
and a little futher back. The other manifolds put the turbo under the manifold to fit the stock dp postion. Just going by what it looks like, but I could be wrong.

Why would anyone spend 1k+$ on a perf mani and run a stock DP??? 2 much money to burn?
The manifold looks good and anyone doing this will be running a 3" DP and exhaust or wasting their time.

Nicest tube I have seen - I prefer cast for street, but a really nice piece.
Equal length?? dont look like it, but hetting it pulsed is more imp. on a turbo than equal. I bought the DB for longevity, but how much? Congrats on the best tube I have seen 2 date. I like the shortness/angle and the heavier tube - I think this may even hold up for street driving 4 a year or 2

Full-Race in AZ is also coming out with a thick tube SS equal length manifold
for the vw/audi 1.8t. Actually they are using my car for the R&D work right now. Here is a link to the pics of the proto type.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/performance/msgs/66325.phtml">click here</a></li></ul>
