There are only 2 Manifolds I personally would endorse.. Both depend on your Budget and goals..
Buschur Ported w/ 65mm TB as tested to 9.14 on My RS..
Driven Innovations Sheetmetal tested to 8.75 & 166.8mph...
Those are 2 manifold setups depending on your budget that you cannot go wrong with.. Sad to see skunk didnt do their homework testing their unit before releasing it to us and making us Beta testers..

I take Mustang Dyno #'s with a grain of salt.. When the car runs a time and MPH then i can say to myself , YES it must have dyno'd that #.. No disrespect but i dont beleive any # on an MD or DD dyno sorry.. Much to easy to manipulate.. Trap Speeds DONT LIE...

Well last i saw our street car ran 8.98 & 5.80 @ 123 mph in the 1/8th with 782whp on dynojet .. Buschur RS ran 125mph in the 1/8th with barely 700 on his MD.. Id say 12-14mph in only the 1/8th is quite a bit off pace for 770WHP on and MD.. Just my observation..

Sorry man just my observation that the MPH doesnt add up.. Just my personal belief that i dont buy ANY record breaking Mustang dyno #'s without a slip to back it up or atleast close.. 14 MPH in the 1/8 is missing 150-200hp somewhere.. Not to mention BR car made under 700on the mustang there.. so 70 more HP + 14mph missing just doesnt add up to me personally..

Hopefully we will see what she does on the MAP Dynojet in the near future All I can say is you obviously have some talented drivers in some very light chassis' lol. The MAP talon barely squeezed a 9.9 @ 149 a few years back with over 750whp on a DJ. There are so many factors that come into play with making a good pass at the drag strip...
Back on topic of the Skunk That Stunk!!!LOL

This car would be only around 650 on BR dyno, and like i said before low boost, heavy car, no traction 6.6 where the results, this pass was not done running 762hp. Maybe next project for you guys should be a full weight SSL evo and not upgrading it with light weight parts, let see how fast you will go on that.

lol i dont have the money like these shops do to go out and buy my self an RS to work on. Trust me they have a lot more then just a mustache bar in there cars to save weight. 700hp car going 8s, i bet that thing weights a lot less then everyone thinks it does.
