I like what MotorDyne does, but they should have had the manifold re-cast in aluminum with a price point at $1200.

I perosnally would rather it be cheaper for the same amount of power gain. I could care less how it looks.

Plastic will not heatsoak like aluminum will, this is probably a result of some R&D but an aluminum manifold would look awefully pretty!
