08s2000CRbackinblack : yes, called a top mount manifold

Revenge : thank you for the advise, but i know want to risk my laskey racing engine just to save a couple dollars.

Reborn56 : i'm going to try that with the brake line. thank you for the advise

passmans2kny: how hard was to relocate the brake line? can you take a better pic, i can't see the line.

I will be relocating my fusebox, ESP. to the fender, i will be using the PatS4P A/C lines relocation kit. That shouldl take care of the fusebox and other wires. The only thing left in the brake line.

That brake line can be a problem, ask me how I know?

I was pulling out 2 weeks ago step on the brakes, pedal drops, puff of smoke right side under hood. Thermal cycling of that steel line it let go. I just ran a new line
parallel with the strut bar out of proximity to the manifold , no more problems.

venting your hood may have hurt more than it helped. Read the recent thread on the guy's updated Greddy setup where he explains how the air flows through the engine bay.

Revenge: I'm sorry, but someone should punch you for considering putting an OBX turbo manifold on the S2000.

I really did not recommend it, I was just listing additional options, I really know nothing about it other than I came across a post discussing it. However, based on a couple of post by other seems like not many people like it.

how could venting the hood be bad? your getting all the heat out of the engine bay and lowering IATs?
