I have a 1997 s14 with an s14 sr20det (notchback) as most of you know. I have a gt2871r w/ .86 a/r and Im running the stock exhaust manifold....I know, I know....... Nopi nationals is approaching and I want a good manifold to show off. I dont want a megan or equivalant because I dont want to have to replace it every year or so. I dont want any cracking or breaking. Ive been eyeing the hks and the jic magic ones. What do you guys like and what would be the best way to go? Thanks in advance.

hmmm i didnt know greddy made an exhaust manifold for the sr. I have the greddy intake manifold if thats what you are refering to. I have pretty much decided on the peak performance mani. Do any of you know anything about this manifold? They have been running this manifold on their drift car for 2 straight seasons with no breaks or problems. Think it should be fine? Any more opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and here is a link to the manifold.http://storesense.megawebserve...l.bok

Our MEGAN manifold have lasted more than a complete FD and D1 season on our cars+ many hour of practace time. and price is right. if your going bigger turbo the the Peak Boost one that we and Enjuku run with the bigger turbo is a good choice...

I ordered the peak performance one for 399. I hope it was a good decision. The guy at enjuku told me that it came with a 6 month warranty and if it broke they would either replace it or give my money back. I will let everyone know how it turns out. Thanks guys.

in all honesty you get what you pay for

but for the price of the megan you cant beat it

it might crack....but MANY people have had NO,ZILCH,NADA problems with it thus far

P2M has it on a project car and it hasnt been negatively affected

but i agree...Peak boost is the way to go...unless your on a budget or just dont care

The new design megans are beefy, they have a bolt-on turbo flange support too. I plan on buying one when I get my car running -_-
