I don't know if there's any gains but I'm sure there is. I doubt they make them for you to lose power if that were the case not so many people would be buying them and interested in them.

most people want them for the bling factor of having a tubular manifold. thats why they buy shitty cheap ones that crack and fall apart.

You can see some top end gains with a well designed equal length tubular.
I wouldn`t run one on a street car unless it was from DNP or Shearer. I have even heard of DNP ones cracking but it is few and far between. Shearers are pretty much bullit proof but they are also 1k bucks. I have seen many cracked and rewelded SFP manifolds.
