From hands on experience...Megan doesn't really make much of a difference, just looks better.

I had it on my car did some before & after tests...they're here on the forum so you could search around for them.

You lose low-end power and gain minimal top-end power..but not worth the low-end loss IMHO....it seem the stock ported manifolds have performed pretty well...I would reccomend goign that way.

Cool...

Buschur stock ported/coated. It's the worry-free way to go.

You obviously have no clue of what you speak. They sell manifolds identical to the megan ones on ebay for half the price.

how much of a loss are we talking about on the low end? And how much of a gain on top-end?

Ok heres the deal I have both, the megan has been on my car for about 6 months, worry free and never had an issue. I was going to put in a egt gauge and i know the stock manifold is much better for driling and mounting. I have never used the stock ported mainifold that i have yet. got it from a bud. Just wondering what way to go.

Please correct me if I am wrong: But aren't we talking about Exhaust Manifolds? Isn't that an Intake Manifold???
