with next months wages coming soon i'm looking to possibly buy an after market manifold. is it worth getting and what differences am i going to notice?
mods already to engine include bored out (2050cc), schrick cams, chip, full side exit exhaust system and the usual k&n filter.
cheers

SBD typeA would be ok.... TypeC overkill
BTB make them, so maybe ask them for a price if SBD are too steep.
Tony Law....
heaps of places... but'll prob have to get some work do to your existing exhaust to get it to fit

BTB do a googlesearh, same with tony law, blueflame etc
The bore will be different from your OE manifold.... so it wont fit exactly .... just need a bit of exhaust made up to fit it all together.
Mine is 2.5" all the way though now

SBD are cheaper than BTB are for the manifolds, go figure.
