I love the fact that I have seen this car transform over the years into a sickness.

I just went outside and shot my miata in the head. Whats the f'ing point anymore with you people and your seemingly unlimited money, time, energy, and way better fab skill than my own. When's the weigh in? I need to buy me some plywood, brake ducts, and a real oil cooler.

How much do people expect to pay?

"despite what everyone said"...do people not like the manifold?

I'll send a PM on the price.

LOL yeah. But seriously it is getting to the point around here where you do not get respect unless you are in the 300+ rwhp club. Not that is what I am after. I'm after that smile I get whenever I push down my right foot. It almost does not matter what gear I am in anymore. Love it

Tim I think your manifold is badass and I am in awe of your fab skills.

considering I just paid $430 to get my begi cast manifold "fixed", now making it a $1000 hunk of iron ****, I should have given Tim my money a long time ago.

No offense, but I never did understand why the hell you guys went with those "log" pieces of **** in the first place.
You and Sav are pretty serious track guys (at least it seems like it to me) and put a shitload of money/effort into your cars. I could see some noob like me or someone completely clueless getting the "basic kit" from begi and being satisfied with the log mani, but for track ******? It should have been a no brainer.

Oh well, better late than never I guess. Tims manifolds are absolutely ****. I'm still drooling.

There were no real "hardcore" options around when I bought my **** 3-years ago, and when I bought my stuff I did roughly 3 track events. Yeah, instead of blowing $430 out my *** through a trumpet, I spent it on mitigating a loss. As long as I can get some cash for my old manifold and dp, I'll survive...so I can fund the pipe/fab work on my new set-up. Its a good thing I'm rich and make it rain up in tha club.

I've dated too many strippers. You'd think not going to strip clubs would make them easier to avoid, but I can't seem to. Once you get over them paying for **** in huge stacks of singles they have to use up, it's not bad.

My FM-II manifold is leaking AGAIN. On the repair over the repair the fixed the repair.

Cast/logs are supposed to hold up much better than tubular - I don't want to put in a tube and have to repair IT every other week, either. But I'll admit the idea of fixing the one I have again isn't doing it for me - I've got a motor that you could set bombs off in, so why not get a mani to match? I guess my biggest concern is getting one for the GT28R then hitting it's upper limit right away and needing to redo the manifolds.

Is there any reason why this thread doesn't consist of a higher picture to post ratio?

It's all phantom until I see some dyno graphs and track vids. All pics up until now are just photoshopped.
