   We have run out of raceland manifolds but we will get some in next week. The supersprint manifold is a much better made product but its a lot more expensive

   Not really, get a cheaper Raceland manifold, performance gains will be decent with a 421 but are very minimal from Raceland to Poopersprint, if any difference at all.
   Poopersprint will last years who keeps a saxo for years and years? Not I.
   It's not like a stainless Raceland manifold won't outlast the majority of the parts on your car anyway.
   Save your pennies get a Raceland and get something else too!

   raceland is good enough! its stainless steel unlike many cheap 4-2-1/4-1 manifolds, only difference is the quality of the fitting, and they are by no means hard to fit at all, and once they are on i cant see them being worse than any other 4-2-1 manifold

   The raceland performs well, but its not finished off to the same standards as the supersprint so for a highly tuned car I would expect slightly higher gains to be had

    probably a 4-2-1 for a car used on the road though there are a number of very good 4-1 manifolds as well.

    ok thnxs so will the supersprint 4.2.1 be a lot more power gain than the raceland one or not if so is it worth it

    you might gain a bhp or 2 at top end as the supersprints are hand finished and have smoother flowing internals. They have better fitment, better materials, better welding. I'm a fan
