This manifold when i bought it was the biggest piece of garbage ever. Paid $269 for it shipped and it took an extra $100 to make this done right. Instead of it being a 3 piece cast it is now completely tig welded all the way around done at PSI Motorsports in Winter Park,Florida where Chelsea Denofa takes his car. This manifold is solid. Shipping is roughly $30 bucks(just checked today) if someone can do $200 shipped that would be cool. It ran me a total of $369 bucks so your saving money and your getting a solid ass manifold.

we don't know if its the manifold or something on his car but when driving and you push the clutch in and let the car idle down it seemed to take a while. i never drove it or heard how slow it idled down but at reg idle it idled fine. boost leak tested multiple times. does not leak the slightest bit. he went back to oem cause he just wants to drive a problem free car. could possibly have been something on his car that was causing it.

That's a common ka-t problem... My friends' car does that too, stock intake manifold

My car does that too, but mine is because of the light weight flywheel and the light weight crank and accessory pulleys. Faster revs also mean slower de-rev, or what ever you call it.

havent heard of anyone having as many issues on this manifold as you. $200 is a good price but one of the big reasons i want that style is the 2 piece and thermal gasket

^^^lmao..the "thermal gasket was a joke..it being a 2(3) piece cast was even worse....the reason my car idles like shit is because of a vaccuum leak on my blowoff valve....i boost leak tested my car with the godspeed manifold on and no leak (that i could hear)...I put the stock manifold on thinking it was my problems and i finally had my brother feel around and it was my blow off valve behind the problem...
I took the manifold off for nothing and im not going through putting it back on..it works..its fine..it doesnt leak..its ready to go..its a 1 piece fully tig welded intake manifold..no bs..noone talk shit please..i went through alot to get this to work

I just want to make sure i have this straight. You wanted to buy a godspeed intake manifold..after you read the disaster condition it comes in adn how i spent extra money on top of the brand new price to get it completely overhauled to look, and performed %100 you didnt wanna buy it?
$269 dollars bro and you too can go through what I went through.
