    Waiting for CS to spell out port injection support. It would be perfect upgrade if this happens. The price point is great at the moment.

    IMO it's about $200 high.

    That's exactly what I was thinking. Plus their shipping rates....

    Negative. The price is actually really good IMO.

    This is not a modified pre-existing manifold, such as a ported OEM or the ST kit with all the adapting equipment. This is a new cast, and has to have the excess removed before each unit is ready for use. All the NEW manifolds such as the JMF and that flacid unicorn that CPE made are all priced much higher than $600.

    I'm with everyone else in that I would love for good quality car parts to be cheaper, but that's a pipe dream.

    I give corksport credit on the price point for the manifold, I would like to see someone try it out and see what the engine response is.

    I was hoping for a meltdown of the engine and chassis, instead it gets vaporized.

    How disappointing...

    Maybe we can get the price down a bit with a group buy?

    EDIT--I don't see it on the website either. Is it only available to the people who pay for the 7th gear thing?

    $600 is extremely reasonable. Especially for a cast manifold.

    Just the man I was about to tag. Any chance you can work your awesomeness and bench test one of these?

    I've already talked to CS about it a while back. They expressed no interest in 3rd party testing. I'm pretty sure they've already bench tested it but as to any specifics I have no idea.

    If anyone who buys one would like it tested just let me know. I'm back at school so I can throw it on the bench at any time. Just need to dig up my setup fixtures.

    It's not officially on the site. When i go under new products, you can't select it. I guess its underground for members only

    It's available to buy if you follow that link, though; probably just the new (crappy) website bein' a dumdum.

    The manifold would have to be totally changed in this case and CS doesn't generally do things that aren't bolt-on and go. They'd then need to make an entire PI fueling setup with tuning solution which would add at least $1000 to the price of the manifold... imagine how many people would be whining in this thread then o_O
