b/r all the way.
1 you will lose power with the ebay/megan manifolds.
2 you will gain power with b/r ported.
3 you tell me witch one sounds beter.
also if your going for looks get your b/r ported manifold couted and then a really nice heatsheld. that looks really nice and you get the power.
b/r cant go rong. it is a win win.

I have had both on my car, things I noticed were the Megan allowed me to run more boost without having to crank the boost controller to get the same boost level on the stock manifold. I implied that this meant it flowed better than stock. When I had the stocker off I gasket matched/ported it and put it back on in fear of cracking the Megan and to also gain back low end torque. I had to still crank the boost controller a few more turns to get to around 21 psi, but I gained all my lowend back and lost minimal topend from the feel of things. I would port your stocker w/ a Dremel as it is pretty easy and put it back on as it is much more durable and won't crack. You can also tap your stocker for an EGT probe.

Billet Design said they did a dyno test before & after and gianed 22 HP on a stock turbo. They also said they've installed over 20 Megan headers over the past year w/ no cracking issues.
