i don't know if this has been covered but on your manifold, to me, it looks as if not all the pipes are the same size. like : either pipe 1 or 4, on your pics. anyway, *** does it matter if they aren't in equal length?

Rep Power: 312 you are correct. The runners are not equal length, but neither are any of the other turbo kits out there for our cars.
The big thing that our manifold has that the others dont is the 4-1 style collector. The other manifolds have more of a log style manifold. The benefit of the 4-1 style is that the exhaust gasses all enter the collector in the same direction, which improves spoolup time and reduces boost spikes. When a log style manifold has the exhaust gasses running into each other in the runners.
