Has anyone had custom manifolds made for the Speed Six? And if so, by whom? I'm considering getting some equal length manifolds made for my Tuscan S and I would like some info on which companies to consider using.

Suggestions appreciated!

Give clive f a nudge on here, he bends pipes and makes shiny things for a living. I did ask him a while back if he was going to make some up, but he was unsure as I'm led to believe its quite a bit of work. Perhaps if there were enough of us banging on his door, he'd start bending!

Come on Clive, you know you want to!

I `ve looked into making some manifolds for the speed 6 since playing with RV8 and AJP`s but when you get a pair of standard speed 6 manifolds on the bench and measure up the true length of each header pipe there isn't much in it from them all being equal, for once TVR did do a pretty good job.

personally I`d go the other way and look into unequal length manifolds which would help spread the torque more, and blend into the exhaust pipe without allowing for a cat to give a much smoother flow, but if they were easy to get on and off the car I would have done a set by nowhehe
