NA performance is alright and Turbonetics is even better. It just all depends on how much money you have to spend right then and there. Like for me, I have many things to pay for and Im only 19 so I would only be able to afford the NA Perfomance kits. I hear that they can put out well over 500hp. I can't really remember were I heard it from but they had dyno charts. NA perforance!

How much power can the street dynamics turbo manifold handle? It says 325hp on the website. But what if I want to run high boost? I don't want my manifold to crack or anything.

The street dynamics have never tested high boost levels, but considering that it is made out of cast steel and is it tig welded, it should hold up fairly well

On the other hand, the daveh manifold has seen 900+ whp numbers.

And just a FYI, equilenght tubular manifolds have more torque than log manifolds, however, it is said that log manifolds spool up quicker. Would anyone like to chime in on the advantages of log style manifolds, the daveh manifold, and tubular manifolds?
