just about.

have you dyno'd your car yet? I know a guy with a DE with s4's making 360ish whp at 16psi, you should bet that no problems.

I read in a thread that log manifolds cause reversion in ve motors.. not sure if thats true or not but if it is then the other manifold will help

I know full race did a test awhile back comapring the tublar vs. log. The tublar did 50-60hp more on the top end.

Put it this way, my old car with a tublar and O2 mani., did 381hp on 10psi. Oh and this was on DE with stock cams and a T3/T67.

Between the 2 mods, you should gain at least 80-100whp up top.

Tubular really only shows gains in the top end and they make a bit of a larger power band. The larger primary diameters and longer runners allow for the big gains.

True, but where else does a turbo car need power?

^Nice in the bold.

^Dayam! tubular FTW! I'm liking the O2 mani more and more. Dang that is a hot piece

Gay-Rod (NX$paniard) made 400whp on 14psi. iirc he doesnt have much done to the block minus rods. he DOES have an 02 induction manifold and Q45 tb which seems to make it a hell of a lot easier for the engine to breathe. best way is to get in touch with him and he can let you know how he got there.

I actually pioneered a lot of this setup and found out in fact that the log manifold causes reversion with stock VE cams. But I have VET cams now. They took out 30* of overlap.
