*edit nevermind.

OP: If you are getting an internally gated FP Green, chances are you are not looking to boost over 25 psi, and therefore not looking to make insane amounts of power and run single digits in the 1/4. If that is the case, then a ported 2g manifold will do you just fine. If you are adamant about getting a new manifold, for the sake of getting a new manifold (and spending needless amounts of money, for bling), then do yourself a favor and read the (FP race manifold) thread and any associated threads about SBR's.

If you want my unbiased .02, SBR makes a great cast manifold that is the equivelant to an extremely hogged out 2g manifold with thicker walls after the fact. The FP race manifold is comparable to a tubular/case manifold hybrid. Theoretically the FP race manifold should decrease spoolup time, but that is yet to be documented.

IMHO, you are better off just spending your money elsewhere. Shit, if you need a ported 2g manifold, I have one sitting in my garage I can sell you.

Lastly, if you are planning to run over 25 psi, your best bet is the go external gate. TRUST ME, I'm in those shoes right now and wish I would have went external a long time ago.
