Ive been thinking of moving on to MS2 as well, but MS1 is working great for me right now. What made you decide to upgrade?

If you're still looking for stuff to build a box manifold, check this site out:

http://www.rossmachineracing.com/index.htm

I'm going to be building one as well, and I am going to use their stuff. Its kind of pricey, but looks to be well machined.

I like the build BTW, its nice to see someone take the time and effort to build a fast ATX neon for a change.

ignore the wiring mess... making sure everything works good before making it purty.

had a HUGE exhaust leak between the head and manifold, turns out the flange was "U" shaped and i didnt notice it :oops: so its at the machine shop getting handled now.

and my hired gun.
