Hey Rocket! I've been looking for that manifold myself since I've heard about it 2yrs ago. What exactly was it that got reich into trouble? It was some intake system that they never produced. I'll never let him around people I know if it can be helped.  Gus

yeah I like the idea of the supercharger. I think thats the way to go. Looking good Rocket!

Oh by the way, do you still get the Pshhhhht sound on the blow-off valve when you have a supecharger or is it only on turbos ?

Gus,

Heres a side by side comparison that I did of the JDM vs USDM manifold: http://www.werbatfik.com/jdmintake.htm

Reich had offered a "high flow intake" kit which was nothing more than a glorified cone filter and adapter. They grabbed $200 off 10+ people and never delivered the product due to "manufacturing issues" and have not refunded anybody. They seem to have just dissapeared with the money.

And Spiro,

Depending on how I route the intake I might still be able to get a pshhht, but I'm really after the insane screaming sound the Twin Screw type superchargers make.

Thanks guys!

this was also the standard manifold in european countries, might be easier to get ahold of one. Maybe try 323gtx.co.uk ?
