I'm not sure if this has been out for awhile, but I didn't find it on Zilvia when doing a quick search.

What do you guys think?

[Kaotik25]

woo! that manifold looks nice. The welds are nicely done. If i had the money i'd get it too.

[civilized_drifter]

looks like that the master cylinder is fucked with out a heat shield. but other than that it looks good

[s13silvia123]

i know these guys back back when they first started. good guys but thier shop is always pack from spring til the end of summer. i'll be running down to them to dyno tune my motor in march

for got to add these guys were never into 240's until one of the guys at sound and performance went there. very knowledgable guy and knows his shiit.

That manifold barely got released in January i think. I was pretty excited cause i was thinking about getting an extra KA and turboing it, and that manifold looks niiceee.

I agree though, you would need a heatshield for the master cylinder cause its only like 4 inches away.

My god its beautiful.

Besides that, we have all seen the insane power Ivan is getting from his KA-T. The products are know to be good!

[TiNMAN]

if i had the money id buy their kit. i think only 8 were ever made. yes, the manifold is beautiful.

[KA-T_240]

more then 8 will be made. they well be selling lots of these, if they lower the price.

manifold is crazy sicccck.....they said they redid it how many times...i like that cuz it shows they have some kind of research and development...

[KA-T_240]

Not hating here, its a sick manifold. On the car they did testing on. Like a year ago when they came out with there gt32 made IIRC 389hp at 18psi, but they claim they now make 386 at a higher boost level... I dunno if they switched cars or something? Also, I wish it would come with a lifetime warranty.

I don't think the manifolds will drop in price anytime soon. Most equal length manifolds are around that price (fullrace, ground zero, peak boost, etc).

[KA-T_240]

ground zero is well under 1000.

Im getting a custom one with DP and WG dump for well under 1k

The price has gone up. It now sells for around $800.

the kits or the manifolds? for sure theyre making a lot more of the manifolds but i was referring the their kits. hopefully youre talking about the kits!! :boink:

[NemeGuero]

Its nice.. but the finish looks kinda blah..

For the price, I'd rather a full-race.

And getting to those manifold->head bolts looks like a fun time.

Cereally dude if I get another 240 and come into a bit of money IMA BUY dis thang.

[KA-T_240]

They claim the kit will be full production. but they are not from what I understand going to be making a intercooler kit. I also don't think there DP will bolt up to cat back.

There Intake manifold is currently under production, they have there 1st protype done.

[TiNMAN]

right on for the heads up!

[KiDyNomiTe]

AMS is good people, well crazy people... My body shop works inside of AMS, I don't think their dyno ever gets any rest...

And who needs a pretty manifold, they are all about performance, not shows and shiny things.
