If you do some research it is one of the absolute worst as far as the typical “you lose across the powerband but gain a little topend.” Everything I have ever seen about it, ever, is negative unless you are turbo or have cams. There were a couple of dyno sheets floating around but I can’t find them now. I have yet to see one single person with a dyno sheet show a positive impact from that mani on a stock H22. No personal experience so take this as you will, just what I found when I spent a couple weeks talking to people about it. > > I think we both have Megan/T-Pros headers, and we have custom exhaust.

I ALSO know a guy with a euro r mani so i may pick it up --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/h2b-in-ek/200261)._
