Well my SR came with a Megan manifold and not a stock unit. But regardless, I just can't stand the sound of a stock manifold. It's too low pitched, basically in the same category as a KA. I'd gladly sacrifice 15 hp for the sound I want because it's a street car, and it's my car. Although the FullRace manifolds seem to be proven winners.
Actually got a call today from BuiltToWin that they're gonna build me a top mount manifold for my GT2871R instead of a bottom mount. They said they'd make a custom hot pipe and intake pipe at no extra charge, and that my Kinugawa turbo lines are long enough to reach up to top mount height. Pretty excited as I've never had a top mount before, but they look cool and seem like they'd be far easier to work on for most tasks.
