Must be good if it's a "race" manifold

I'd imagine with an 08 car you aren't looking to skimp on a manifold though. Are you after some more power?

Yeah kind of, that and making it a bit sharper, I have a SS cat back system fitted and I'm also looking for a hiflow Cat to complete the set with a Cold air intake its the way forward for me.

I have emailed this guy and he has confirmed it will fit my 08 S, not sure if I should go for it though..
