Car looks awesome Jef, bet you can't wait to get that up and running .

As for the manifold jdee, It's basically just to shorten the pipe-run from intercooler to throttle body and is a lot of work for very little gain for most modified engines. You can modify your existing one, or buy off the shelf items which have a better design so will flow a little more, but the work involved is quite substantial. I had a reverse manifold that I fabricated on my old GT35 Sti RA and I had to fabricate a new alternator bracket, throttle cable bracket and mess about with lots of other little bits.
