Not to get off of the way this was headed...cause Travis said it best here:
But in response to a few other post regarding the manifold design and why it was changed:
THe flow test thing again.........it has been a very long time ago....when you get x amount of air from one size runner and y amount of air from another size runner and you analyze the data...I have an really good idea of how one manifold will perform vs another.
Same goes with collector design.. how high it is and how soon the runners merge together...theres allot that goes into it.
Plus I can't come on here and say " heh look what I did" and post all the information as all I am doing is educating my competition. I am here to help you guys as consumers, but not to help my competition make a better manifold.
There is allot I could share that would help in the argument, but at this time its not in my best interest. It has to wait for more to post and share there info.
Ace-
let me know what you need as far as parts go and I will drop everthing else and make sure you get what you need asap

So, I would kinda say lets not get off on some conspiracy theory about it being the manifold, and let Ace tie up any loose ends then make an "Educated" guess on what's going on with the numbers.
If they were flow tested, then there wouldn't be any question whether or not one performed better than the other.

^^ as far as parts, you got all parts covered already.. so im good. Its more on the install vs. tune issue as I see it. The tune too might be pretty conservative.. Im still happy with my setup and no regrets getting the hydra and a tune.. i took my car for a ride and it has never pulled that hard before and with better driveability between on and off throttle, some fine tuning might be needed soon but some issues might be checked too.

haha so far its been great with great software, the 3d map and real time table is awesome but for some reason I cant tune realtime, i guess its a cable issue since im not using the right serial to usb adapter.. I went for a street tune a couple of times and so far has good outcome, target afrs map for closed loop tuning is nice.. still trying to figure out how to do the spark map so i can tune it better and smoothen out the fuel map better
