I know huh, full of idiots who think things cost too much. The same type of guys that probably have never even held the actual part in their hands or seen one in person to realize the time, materials, and custom workmanship that goes into the o2 manifold to make it what it is. Oh wait, did I just describe you? My bad.

well it doesnt matter who the car mfg is, there is always a crowd of people who go all out people who are budgeted, people who are limited to mods from lack of knowledge ect.

there are always high end mods and low end mods as far as price is concerned, and not everyone has a need for the high end and not everyone has a need for low end, these parts are really application specific, if your application doesnt call for these kinda parts then you are lucky and dont have to come up with those high prices, if your application does call for these parts then you have already paid enough into the car, go with the high end parts to farther better your application.

Amen.


I hate it when people knock it without even seeing one in person. The 02 induction manifold is beautiful. Very well worth the money.

i chose jon to do my inlet purely on what i had heard and seen in pics. I was not dissapointed with the level of service, whether it was interaction during the early stages of design or the finished product. All from a guy that i will almost definately never meet

People should be proud of the fact that there are such cool guys willing to do stuff for our cars, the fact that they are so cool to deal with even though they are thousands of miles away makes them something way and above anyone i have ever dealt with in my own country....i didn't even have to speak to jon person to person to get what i wanted, everything done via email...no hassles, no problems..

Then as stated before. When a Big timer comes out with a Proven manifold (greddy, stillen Ect..) ALL OF A SUDDEN 02 can sell their Manifolds for hundreds cheaper. Did the price of material drop? Welding got cheaper? Nope... Competition is what drive prices down, not that the product is all that great.

never the less, I've held one of their manifolds and it's a work of art. Worth what it cost??? I dunno.
