I personally know of some 500+whp honda B-series motors running log style, nothing wrong with it, the runners are usually plenty big...

good feedback? good lord dude how much do you want? you just had me and Lex Luthor come on here and tell you Logs are fine... i havent seen ANY posts that talk about how superior a tubular manifold is other than total flow and peak gains; its common knowledge a log-style spools faster than an equal length

you can toss nearly anything and everything you learned with hondas out the window because thats how much its worth in here

I don't think you can have one tubular manifold and say they all suck due to one experience. Log style manifolds are great for spooling fast and are pretty bullet proof in the fact that the cast ones can take an enormous amount of punishment. The tubular ones flow better and work better for setups running some serious power. Both are good if the person who fabricated them paid close attention to what he was doing. Did you use a tubular manifold on your same setup later to compare? The problem could have been elsewhere in your setup or your car. The total success of a setup is not just the sum of the benefits of individual parts but how well they are tuned to complement eachother so that they exceed expectations. Likewise, bad parts/tuning can add up to problems quickly.
