Wow what did this turn into, some entitled kid bitching because a shop (or in this case two shops) that's too busy developing their own products and testing them in the real world doesn't have the time to commit to do a dyno run for them. Buy the manifold, and do it yourself. Nobody owes you ****.

I am tracking with the curved runner, but come on.

I bought the manifold before this thread started. I might not use it on the Miata. I have been thinking about starting a Festiva project with it. I have an extra BP5A in the garage.

While you are all enjoying the free data, please consider buying your manifolds from the vendor putting in the effort.

Again, the manifold is better than any Miata manifold except for the square top which it is very close to. Not a bad choice at all.

If I was to get one I would get it from 949 racing. So there.

I think they only send you the notification if you registered a previous purchase with them. I registered the TB for warranty online when I bought it so I was on their spam email list already. I didn't need one but didn't think to mention it to anyone else here.
