Carbon fiber would look so sick, good call on that. I'd be really interested if a carbon version was avaliable. I literally can not wait for dyno results/pics

I wonder what kind of gains you could expect if you paired it with the injen CAI's
I would assume that the gains would be even better wiht the Injen, but what about a full bolt on car

can anyone actually enlighten me and explain to me the difference between getting the manifold in brushed aluminum or stainless steel? im guessing the 304 stainless steel is better.

The aluminum one is probly much lighter( more pricey too). Not sure what else the difference would be.

Aluminum and stainless steel would each transfer heat differently as well. I don't know how big of a difference there would be or which one is better though.

Hello everyone, my name is John and I am the one who replies to the emails at Revshift. I see there is quite a bit of interest in our new manifold. We are working very hard to make the pictures and detailed information available. We are hoping for a 15 to 20 hp increase in our new tests. If the testing shows much lower results then we will be making minor changes to the design until we achieve our hp goals. We are very dedicated to making this manifold perform correctly and we will not give up until we have done just that. Thank you all for your support.

The dyno results are on the way. They will be posted here as soon as the testing is completed. The photos will also be posted when they are available.

well i was assuming that the manifold was going to look like the DE one except with another tube for the second throttle body. if it can make 18 hp in the midrange which is what im expecting from somthing like this it would be nice.

304 SS is generally the better option. Aluminum is lighter but that's the only advantage really. Aluminum is also very dull looking metal and doesn't give that "bling" factor. Also, I am 90% sure the 304 SS is better for keeping cooler tempertures. The 304 SS is very shiny as well and if polished correctly can be as reflective as a mirror. And teh 304 SS is always the more expensive and popular choice on aftermarket components. And every exhasut component I buy is always in 304 SS

I emailed John, the owner of RevShift(my350z.com username= Revshift), and he said that if their was interest in carbon fiber their is a good possibility of producing carbon/stainless two tone for a little more money. And then these woudl be even more worth it because on top of the performance(I hope) it woudl asethetically be beautiful
