Your best bet would be to make a batch put all the money down yourself and then slowly sell them off as people need them or get the money or whatever. They will have the money if it is a quality piece, for the initial cost and a reasonable markup for your trouble I'm sure. It just takes time because each guy has to get to that point in his own build

Thats a good smart idea, and might be the only way ^^^^

ps. i hate that you have this on both forums, i would have posted first on this one, but i was on the other one searching lol.


^I'm interested in equal length runners, but I don't want the runners to be to long. I been looking about protech's site, but the runners on the FWD SR20 looks to long for my taste. I want to know want the gain different would be from the log on a T3/T4 turbo.

Thats most likely what will happen, we will test a few different styles then make up like 10 of the best intake manifolds and try and sell those. I will definately have a decent amount of money in my self if this goes through. I think if we dont make exhuast manifolds we should at least make o2 housings, and downpipes, people would be willing to pay for those and they would work with most peoples t25/28 set ups.

sounds like a good idea, i have seen off the self DSM manifolds for around $450-550, i think that is the only well to sell things is make some and sell them one by one

^+rep...............It sucks sometimes when you have to post in a interest group buy thread and you have money for a piece. I want a nice equal length manifold and 3" DP, but how many options do I have? Right now the protech log is my number 1 option, but I want tubular for better flow.

I dont know if it would be worth it to make an equal length exhaust manifold. I will have to see what my fabricator wants to make. If i had some made one it would prob. be a pretty limited # as most prople arent willing to pay for a quality piece.
