That is even better. LOL

BTW I'm not trying to hate on Full-race's manifolds or ramhorns in general, I just find their marketing humerous. IMO a full race ram horn is the best manifold to buy for a 500+ horsepower street Honda. They are expensive but they are made well and the company is solid and not going anywhere.

Any other companies have this same flange idea? Good concept , but didn't work to well in this case.

My Inline pro manifold has been flawless. Plus this month they have their manifolds at 25% off. Their new dual t3/4 flanged manifold is redesigned and flows even more. $429 , thats hard to beat for a proven manifold and company.
