Default looking for better turbo Mani

I'm tired of dealing with the lovefab mini-me HEAT, ( i understand that any manifold will produce heat ) but this one is too extreme. Yes, my battery is relocate to the truck. fusebox was rotate 90 D, i have heat coating on the turbo mani, downpipe, turbo housing, i'm using a heat shield on the fusebox. Even with all that the fusebox get too hot. The worse part is the brake line get to hot and the brake fluid get to a boiling point, and i lose 60% stopping power, that scare me.





So i'm looking for a new mani that out perform that mani. , I'm looking for big power mani too( 500whp + ), and of course the manifold has to be reliable , without any issues ( cracking) . I'm running a GT35r

i'm looking at the following manifold

Full race ( i know this mani is as good as the lovefab or better) how is this mani with the heat? can you compare this one with the p-fab?
P-fab manifolds: What can you guys tell me about the PFAB log manifold?

I appreciate any recomendations or help i can get.

I had the same problem with my Fullrace manifold getting hot and boiling off my brake fluid. It was scary about loosing my stopping power, I covered the brake line with FullRace's heat shield (gold foil wrap) and the problem has NEVER come back.
I also turned the fuse box 90 degree and covered it with the gold stuff

But i agree FullRace FTW!!

make a heat shield. Like one that covers the entire manifold from your wiring/EPS/brake line! Look at Reborn56's Full-Race build for ideas!
