People happy with the Buscher ported stock manifold?

I saw some photos of it next to the megan tubular manifold, and it looks much nicer. I also heard someone say it flows better than the megan manifold, and will not crack and fall apart like the cheap tubular ones do.
How do people like this, is it a nice port job, even while using the stock head?
Is it worth it getting the jetcoating?

did i pick up any power with the ported exhaust manifold i dont know i did my hot side and exh mani in one package, i dont know if it hurted the car or it helpped it because i did not do a back to back test.
my take i think it helpped maybe not
i am sure Bushcur has tested this long time ago i am just not sure

To be honest the buschur is just a basic port with coating to make everything nicer looking. As I said before coating cast iron is only for looks since it holds in heat perfectly fine. Can you get a better ported manfiold? Yes, but it will cost a little more.

Lots of proven results here, and the cost is unbeatable. I have the whole package except for an older O2 (ported/coated hotside, ported/coated mani, SS O2), and you see in my sig what I ran on the stock turbo at extreme altitude (subtract 3-4 tenths for sea level if you wish). I now have added the Buschur ported intake manifold, Buschur 3.5mm TB, and a Green. I've lost some spool as expected, but it pulls like a freight train far into the nether regions of my tach. That is of GREAT SIGNIFICANCE due to my mile-high altitude where turbos lose efficiency, especially stock-style ones. My stock turbo would peak at 5300rpm and drop ~60whp by 7000rpm. Now, the Green spools later, but already matches the stock turbo peak by 5300, continues to climb, and then levels off instead of dropping like a rock. I hope to show these improvements at opening day this weekend...

Jrod how long dose it take to port the intake manifold with the TB, and also do the build head??
Planning on getting this for my next build
