Id love to hear the logic on this one.

Please enlighten us how a tubular log manifold is going have worst flow than a cast log manifold.

Thanks.

 

here is how it goes from my experience.
equal length\ram horn > mini me > tubular log > cast log

 

as far as tubular and cast manifold is concerned i dont think it really makes that much of a difference. however we did see noticeable difference from open to divided housing on larger turbo applications (ex. gt42, s372)

 

I wish i could find a Mini-me! I would buy it without question lol.

 

i gained 65-75whp at the same boost pressure from going from a log manifold to a full-race manifold (all things staying the same except for manifold).

 

lol by mini me i meant the love fab mini me. not to be confused with a bald clone....

 

You can't strictly say X manifold is bad b/c it doesn't flow as well as Y manifold. They are different designs.

Depends on what your whp goals are and what turbo it will be coupled with.

35r on that tubular manifold will get you 600whp.

It might not be as efficient, as another brand, but it's not 2-3x the price either.

 

I highly doubt it would be much of an upgrade if any at all. You may actually loose horsepower as the downpipe with that manifold has a VERY abrupt bend right off the turbo.
Inlines log mani has longer runners that are not as angled as this pfab that you are looking at.
I did a lot of research on this manifold also and chose the inline over it.

 

Log manifolds can make power too. Of course Tubular length will flow better for the price, etc.
For example GT35R, 2.4 stroker, PFAB log manifold...600whp

 

Yup, this is what I have seen too. Actually we made 50whp more with 6psi less of boost.
