Money allowing, i'd see if you can get it honed out, but it is a good mid-range manifold, just so damn expensive after all said in done to make it work

thanks this is first time working in one of these sites bare with me.im a slow typer.anyway i am waiting for my k,n cold air kit to run my car since i installed the bullitt intake and throttle body,my car is a stick with 410 gears,o3 independent rear and brembo brakes and lowered 2 inches all around should i change anything else thats not to expensive to dial this in not a quater mile car street racer.

Should of stuck with the solid rear (8.8"). the IRS rears are heavy, you just tacked on an extra 80lbs to your car with that, plus it's prone to wheel hop that can break half-shafts. I would get some long tube headers next. BBK, MAC, SLP, Hooker, Jet Hot, Flow-tech. What else is done to your car? What are your goals?
my car has been lowered 2 inches,added brembo brakes with crossdrilled rotors,flowmaster exhaust,cat free and of course just added bullitt intake an throttlebody,kn cold air kit.i tried limerock roadrace event last november just before putting car away 285 front with 315 rear hoosiers man this car hooked up took first place trophy first event i have been to,i believe the independent is heavier,weaker and does wheel hop but with road course raceing no need to go into wheelhop,i let a couple drivers get in the car and took them for a good hell ride around the track they now believe i made the right choice for roadcourse anyway.thanks i will look into some long tube headers.

As will the intake. It is a great mid-range torque piece so you should be in good shape.
