im sure magnex make one, truth is the SBD ones have had hours and hours of design on a closed cell engine dyno to test them, not just a pattern part.

SLIGHTLY?

For £200+ extra, I'd want it to be made from titanium and flow 50% better than the SBD one

James, go for the SBD one, AK might still have his for sale, might be worth a u2u.

ak sold his for £400, tomsbd sold his for £250

i need to save up enough to buy the manifold and a system to go with it as my system is 2 1/4" and a 2 1/2" system is needed for the sbd type c manifold.

sbd manifold isnt stainless steel and the btb one is
