Default Blox or Rev-hard turbo manifolds

Anyone have luck making any decent power on these? Only asking because i have a Pfab log mani sitting here that wont fit in my b16 crx unless i angle the radiator. And it seems like the Blox and rev-hards will fit nice without angling the radiator. I am just concerned about flow through those cast manifolds. I guess I could also use an LHT log manifold. Lmk

I have a ugr which is similar to the blox. I made close to 400whp with a 57 trim turbo on pump gas. A cast manifold will flow better and make more power than a tru log mani. Some people have boost control issues with the rev hard mani due to wategate placement.

My suggestion would be to use a ugr or muetek due to even better wastegate placement than the blox but still being cheaper than inline pro. Also in order for these mani's to work and be a/c friendly you need a 5 bolt exhaust housing and an "e" compressor cover.

i dont want it a/c compatible. thats the problem im having now with my Pfab manifold. the turbo flange is placed too far to the pass side, and the turbo hits the radiator. If anyone knows anyone looking for a super nice manifold, ill sell my pfab for 300 bucks. its brand new only used for mock up.

and yea ill definitely look into the ugr manifolds.
