   imo the raceland because it was based on the more expensive supersprint manifold and it has gave very good power on heavily modded engines

   In my experience, a janspeed does not allow the oil filter to be fitter i think. something like that.

    i have janspeed mani on mk 1 vtr, very poorly made, had to drill out holes that were misaligned and the bracket underneath would never of fitted. if you want a janspeed just buy a sportex (come from the same factory in japan/china anyways)

    or you could take advantage of my offer --well overstocked with 8v vtr manifolds --early type -so if silver top you need to move filter
    £130+vat
    made in uk by BTB -4-1 type , in mild steel -will last just as long as the cheap s/s that a raceland is made from and will fit perfect
