Any plans for a back-to-back dyno test between your manifold and a 2g? I'm sure it would help sell a lot of product.
I'm hoping to do one sometime in the near future. I have a bunch of new parts I want to get on the dyno but both shop cars were in piece's. One of the car's is almost back together now so once that gets done I'll try to get some testing scheduled.
Your manifold looks great but I was wondering why you are building them out of 304 SS instead of 321SS. I know 321 is a lot more costly but doesn't its strength under the high heat of turbo cars surpass 304?
In thin walled tubing applications the 321 is definitely the way to go. We are using a heavy walled 304 which has become the standard for aftermarket turbo manifolds, it's been proven to withstand both the high temps and the stress from the weight of the turbo.
If you wanted to have a manifold built using the 321 series stainless, we can custom build just about any style manifold you may be looking for.
What gains are you expecting over the 2g manifold? Do you belive this would be a good header for fp30 and fp35 series owners? It would seem that this header would be a hot ticket because Shearer dosn't offer his anymore on his website.

i think any tubular manifold is better than any cast manifold....
I really wouldnt want to project on what gains will be made, street testing has been impressive but once I get some dyno #'s I'll put them up on the site.
Bolted up to either one of those turbo's would make one hell of a combination
