I stopped by Enjuku’s shop today, and I find out that they actually have these in stock! 1 is already sold and Ken told me that he has 2 more in the warehouse.

If you do not have the SR20 swap, this is an alternative.

For info and pricing give Ken a call at (407)673-1320. Their website is http://www.enjukuracing.com

Nice to see a picture of the actual kit. Now we need to see a dyno graph of this thing in action!

I don't know that much about manifolds. What's the problem with an unequal manifold?

basically when the exhaust fumes are shot from the engine, its all one burst.. and to get the most power, all those bursts should hit the turbo at the same time.. its not necessay but its a must if u wanna max out ur turbo system and really get what its worth outa it

The one that's sold is probably mine. I couldn't get a refund on it so I'll just run it anyways and see if its a good kit. I'm assuming it will get to me next week. So the week after I'll give everyone first impressions.

Your not going to find many kits ever coming with an equal length manifold, cause duplicating the manifold for all the plumbing is ver difficult.

The only time you need to worry about using a log is never. Unless your trying to squeeze every last drop of hp out of your engine, a log will do you just fine. I haven't run into anyone on this board who actually needs an equal length manifold.

i agree wd.. but im the type that wont sit tight until i have something very close to a equal length manifold.. thats why im building my own :ylsuper

yea i think that kit will make nice power! just make sure who ever tunes the e manage knows how to do right! :D

I would also cut relief’s in that manifold just like you have to do to the Revhard or it will crack.;)

I think the theory says the bursts are sequential (as is the firing of the cylinders) and you want the bursts to reach the turbo wheel in sequence so they don't interfere with each other at the collector

yep, its more a constant, consistent flow of exhaust gasses to the turbo. Oh, and WD...I need an equal length mani! Because now I can say I have one and feel just that little bit cooler :) Besides, it looks cool.

Good news is that Greddy has it already tuned before they send it out.

DUDE---a cast manifold will virtually never crack in my opinion.

Why not? Do you have any experience or thermodynamic knowledge to support your opinion? You haven't heard of the problems people had with the revhard mani cracking? I'm just curious. I know I plan on doing exactly what technoman said.

My guess is if it comes with a warranty and you cut it greddy will say its modified. I'd run it the way it is and if it cracks then claim in under warranty. If it doesn't come with a warranty, then ... well, thats an awfully expensive kit for what it is.

Rev Hard makes a cast manifold and Ive never heard "cracking" in a sentence without "Rev Hard".

I think the equal length manifold is all about the bling factor!

BTW Greddy claims 210hp (at the wheels?) for the kit.

The rev hard cracking issue is news to me. I just refer to cast not cracking with the experience of stock cast manifolds and HKS cast manifolds. We have used both for 2-3 years with turbos ranging from the small T25, to T3/T04E, to a T04E, to a 62-1 and none of them have ever cracked on us. Even with heat ranging up to 900 degrees Celsius. I also compare that to stainless manifolds that hav a higher tendency to crack, UNLESS you use weld-els in the construction.

The Greddy kit is a deal since it includes the e-manage, and includes the programing needed for a rough tune. If it weren't for our S14 getting into an accident the day before it was available, we would already have it on the dyno and posting the results.

If it voids warranty then don’t do it. Ask Greddy or Ken at Enjuku and see what they have to say. But if you don’t think that cast metal is not going to want to flex your nuts!

DrJ don’t cut it just for warranty issues and if it ever cracks you know what to do with the second one.

The support tool will be needed for sure. Does the kit come with the support tool? And if greddy has tuned the e manage what did they tune it for? 6 psi 10 psi 100 psi?

I don't believe it comes with the support tool and it comes tuned for 6 psi. I will probably buy the map sensor so I don't have to run the MAFS. Everything is relatively cheap including the support tool, although it adds up in the long run.

I believe you still need the MAFS, the map sensor is only to see boost.

There is an option on the emanage to use a map instead of mafs to determine airflow. It requires a little calibration but it will work. Rick uses a 3 bar map sensor instead of having to fiddle with the cobra mafs and jwt setup I believe. Rx7s and some hondas also use maps instead of mafs.

I know some cars use MAPS instead of MAFs, but I just didnt think the emanage could use its map sensor to fuction as a replacement for the mafs. I know other standalone setups can replace the maf with map, but I dont think the emanage can because of its reliance on the stock ECU.

The way I understand it is that the map sensor takes over after the MAF is out of its range. "big boost"
