More cc?

Haha, no I can't afford that, I've bought another manifold. Feels 4-2-1, 2.25" collector.
Coming from overseas, so shipping cost more.

That is bad luck, are you going to keep it and get it changed to 2.25" or are you going to sell it on?

who knows mate, who knows! i paid a pretty penny for it, and it is a very nice manifold, and I would rather this up'd to a 2.25" than my DC - so i think im going to keep it. i doubt i could get my money back, and find another decent manifold that actually is 2.25"

interested in our conversation in my other thread..
i know the Supersprint is a well known good manifold with a 2", but i think 2.25" is much better for a B16A with internal mods

IMO it would be better to go with a 2.25" system aswell, if its a good sytem then exhaust flow (which is what matters) should (read as will) be better. The only place you might loose out on is low down as a 2" system will flow faster at slow speeds than a 2.25" system.

nice one Ian, that answered my next question lol

ill be getting a lighter flywheel (dc2/ek9), so that should help me lower down, i know its not exhaust flow, but for low down revs it will pick up that bit quicker.
