          Looks fine to me. Looks like a good ceramic coat on it as well.

              something isn't right.. the manafold looks nice, but its never been used... how could it have made almost 500hp?

                since it was jethotted it hasn't been used, but before it made 500hp. that's my guess.
                No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.

                  hes a mazda kid, ask what forums hes on with s/n see if you can get an idea of how well he is known.

                  the manni looks good to me though

                    Bet he made another one for someone else that made those numbers then the unfinished project was a car tthat he made that for and they backed out on boosting it.

                      manifold looks good to me. when you send it off to jet hot coated, they blast the outside and inside, and coat both inside and out, and it extends the life of any exhaust piece by a good 15-20 years. you can take a cheap pacesetter header and have it sent off and jet hot coated, and have a nice header that will last 20-25+ years and flow way better then a regular untreated pacesetter header.

                        it sounded to me like he used this header on a previous project (495hp) and then pulled it off and had it cleaned and jet coated for the new project that never happened.

                        still a sick looking manifold.
