Message	They flow roughly similar to Dupree. But wasn't the boast to exceed them? Mike Smiths blew them both out of the water. Also, the "bigger is better" theory behind that JA expresses was clearly disproved when compared to MS's manis. [ http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=1669529 ] [ http://www.300zxclub.com/showpost.php?p=675780&postcount=1 ] [ http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=1608800 ] There's no denying that MS's manifolds far exceed JA's. If JA chooses to sell them for ~$500, then I can see where someone would might to use them. Otherwise, for the $1k that both JA and MS are expected to be asking, the MS mani's are clearly a far better choice.
