Man, just when I'm in need of an exhaust mani too. I voted for the ceramic coated sporatic just because it looks better to me. Either way, I'd be down with whatever was cheaper really...
 
The cost to make either design is pretty much the same. Since they will both be equal length, the amount of tubing/material will be pretty much the same. So, no one will be cheaper than the other. I just want to know what you guys would find more appealing to the eye :)

Price: I am not sure of what the cost will be. Depending upon how many are produced/ ceramic coated or not, materials, etc., Its hard to know right now. Once the prototype in completed, we should have a better idea of what these will go for.
 
I voted for the "Uniform Manifold w/ Ceramic Coating," but I thinka any design that would produce the most power for the value is what I'm looking for. Also, I'm sure you'd understand, the wait time is not crazy.
 
i'm interested in a new manifold. I hope that this works out, it would be great for us mazda enthusiasts.

I like the uniform design + coating. 'sporatic' just for looks seems pointless to me. Like someone else mentioned, I don't care what design it is so long as it's the best performing/ stongest manifold for the money. I have a nice crack delevoping on my manifold so hopefully this falls through soon. If not I'm going to try to retrofit a turbo manifold from another car with similar exhaust ports to my car. good luck!

bump for more input!

If the performance increase of the two designs is approximately equal, and both cost the same to produce, then I am more or less indifferent as to the design type. That said, the deciding factor for me would be which design fit better with my Turbo Hoses hard pipes.

In either case, I prefer the ceramic coating.
 
If you make it fit, and make it available to the public you will already blow the competition away.

Agreed, sub'd, and interested. I like the equal length design just because it appears more clean to me. When it comes to the MSP clean is definitely what's up in my book. I think in order to have it last as long as possible you would want a ceramic coating, but I like the appearance of SS tubing as well.
