Couldn't u just cut the 90 bend into and 45 bend and then use a strait coupler?

no because its not just changing the orientation its actually shortening the length of the cold pipe. See the attachment for refrence.. as you can see the end of the tb is now placed infront of the clutch master cylinder.

can I change my coating to the gloss black?
yes

what's the difference between gloss black and regular coating of black? what are the options for coating?
There are many different options on coating custom colors etc. look at my main post below

^also curious....

see main post


Ok ladies and gents the richman gave me a call this afternoon and asked me to come in here and give you all an update since A. he has been away from the computer and B. his life is crazy right now and he's not able to get on much. The production of the manifold is stopped at the moment reason being is wildfires are ******* up new mexico and forcing evacuations in los alamos (where the mani's are being made) as well as other places. http://abcnews.go.com/US/los-alamos-fire-initial-air-samples-normal-radiation/story?id=13953953 there's a link on the wild fires and some of the stuff going on down there if you care to read it. As far as color options go the standard colors will be Extreme chrome, flat black, gloss black, and piano black. The extreme chrome and the flat black are both from the first production run and you can see pictures below. Additional custom colors can be done but im not sure if they will be at an extra cost. if you have any questions feel free to ask.

Dang.... three things...

im sorry dont take this the wrong way but when you asked if any were done it made me lol. If any were done trust me you would know about it he just started taking deposits and ordering material no way are any close to being done. As far as decisions on coating you will have some time to decide. I'm sure when it comes time to do the coating rich could break out some color samples to help people that dont want flat black or extreme chrome.
 
I don't think the cost of this manifold would really be justified by the power gained for N/A. That's just my opinion.
 
So ur saying no matter what N/A setup you got the gains wouldn't be enough to justify the cost
i disagree with that whole heartedly. n/a people see differences. it's more flow. you would see MORE of a gain turbo. but if you tuned an n/a motor for this it'll see a good gain.
