Extrude Honed Banks TT Manifolds

[deuce_454]

reason i ask is that ive just bought a pair of schwartz TT manifolds and im wondering if its worth doubling the cost of the manifolds.. i meas they should be able to deliver enough boost to make 1200 hp, so what is the gain per dollar?? and will it be better spent elsewhere?

Let me ask this. Are you going to port and polish your intake manifold? If yes then for sure do the exhaust. You want want less resistence on the exit then on the intake. Just a rule of thumb with blown motors.Thats why you find long duration on the exhaust side of camshafts, to make sure all the spent gases gets out.

good point, no im not going to polish the intake or the inside or the intercooler piping for that matter... sorry for hijacking by the way... it sure looks nice, and just the thing id do on my own car (the TT350 im doing isnt my own, otherwise id extrudehone the manifolds just to know that it was done to help me sleep better)
