Re: Y8 mani or custom

Cheaper = Y8

Better = custom

Gerry makes some very nice ones (jdmfabtech.com - 02fpcivic) and dezod has one in development right now. I'd buy one of Gerry's but don't have the cash do drop on one right now. Hence why I'm going with a Y8 until I deploy again and can afford more expensive parts!

Re: Y8 mani or custom

The Y8 actually isnt too bad for the money. If you can do it yourself you will save a ton. You will have to get creative with your fuel system in one way or another.
