Gabe the whole discussion went over his head like a lead balloon.

Here is what you asked of me:

I never said I had a "custom" intake manifold, you just assumed I did. I said my opinion of this manifold is that it's way over priced. You asked me to post a pic of MY manifold, which I did, then you complain because I don't have a custom manifold like this one and accuse me of having a FReddy. Then this Gabe dude comes out of left field and says that a fake GReddy costs the same as the one in question. Let's see,hmmm fake GReddy $400, this manifold $850. You need to learn to read your own posts and stop nut swinging. I didn't get on here to argue with you. Buy it if you think it's worth the money. Two others flamed it before I did. I gave my opinion about something that doesn't even concern you, and you couldn't take it. You can carry on about this all you want, I'm done wasting my time.

You two idiots aren't getting a rise out of me. I'm too old to argue with kids on the internet. Furthermore, we're thread jacking, and need to cut it out.

Well, 45 days after the mnaifold was supposed to be here i contacted his local PD and the guy finally sent me the manifold. I wish i could say i was pleased with it but with the time it took for me to get it i expected alot more. It arrived with a s*** polish job and i HAVE to pressure test it due to a few lesser quality welds that i may have to redo... long story short, if i could do it over again id want it delivered in under a week and pay under $300....

Feel free to contact me with any quesstions.... ill try and get some pics up later.

IMO $850 for a custom manifold is NOT expensive at all. Now I'm not saying this manifold is any good as I've never seen one in real life but if it was good it would be worth the money. You can't compare a Chinese knock off to a custom made manifold in price. Hell if you want to compare look at how much the real greddy costs and it's a mass produced piece. I've had a greddy and freddy in each hand and there is a substantial difference.

the junk welds and lack of proper research steer me away from it, if i was going to sell a product like this id surely have dyno results to back up what i was selling
