   Theres plenty of threads about this sort of thing mate. Use the search button.
   Short explanation is the 4-2-1 manifold will improve response in the low to mid rev range.
   The 4-1 will increase response higher up the rev range. Most daily driver cars have 4-2-1 manifolds as they spend most time in the mid to low rev range. 4-1's are better for track and high tuned cars e.g bodies or turbo etc. Constantly near the redline in other words. Hope this helps.
