Turbo manifold??

I was wondering if you guys think a matched length turbo manifold with wider tubing would be a good investment? i saw it on ebay for my sr20det and i was thinking about getting, you think it would have good results? thanks

HKS's manifold is nice, but pricey!

to answer your question, a shortest length mani, or any unequal mani for that matter, makes it so the exhaust gases hit the turbine on the turbo at different times, robbing your car of perfomance..

an equal length mani allows the gases to enter the turbo at the same time, allowing maximum performance...
