This is where i'm in a tricky situation because although i've had problems its the price of a certain DC Sports manifold that keeps me interested.
DC Sports Race Manifold - 4-1 Ceramic - FUNKY POWER
Thats the one i had on my B18C and I can assure you it provides the gains this was probably the only bolt on mod i felt that made a huge difference !!
£285 is a steal, I was prepared to pay that and if it broke i'd replace it.
I think my biggest problem with this particular manifold was the heatwrap i put on it as DC Sports basically tells you their manifolds will fail when wrapped, also this is the main problem with corrosion as the heat wrap can stay wet (personally i sprayed my heat wrap with DEI thermal/waterproof paint and it worked a treat.
No matter what you choose just make sure you upgrade to a 2.5" collector (dont forget to buy the donut gasket). You maye have fitment issues if you dont already have a decat to fit 2.5" collector.
Also to add to the argument you have to decide between 4-2-1 & 4-1
If its BHP your after 4-1 is your friend - also on a B18C i think is the best manifold - for a B16B you might be better with a 4-2-1 for the midrange torque.
what was the ground clearance like with this mate? did you end up flattening it atall? im torn between tegiwa and one of these
