if it flows better.. boost will actually be lower :wink:

something iffy about that ad though, it says 4-1 equal length but in the picture it quite clearly isn't

I was looking to go down this route, as I've currently got Barry Maniflow problems, but a little birdy tells me that st. steel manifolds are more prone to cracking than the OE item!  :undecided:  (Although, obviously the s/s item should flow the gasses better).

over time stainless will crack due to heating up and cooling down process, obviously different types of stainless might be less prone, but cheap stainless  :undecided:
My welder/fabricator in work would never have a stainless exhaust because of this
