Man I am loving the choices and the timing couldn't be better.

I don't trust those figures a bit after 034 measured their own "rs2 EM". You can see from their pics that is isn't good as runners get combined in one pipe. Measuring single runner doesn't tell much.
Some 2 years ago or so few pictures of a swedish(?) made manifold looked great. It kept turbo and wg in original position. They were posted here on the forum.
This plastic model looks absolutely great. Every runner runs its own path from start to finish and collector looks nice for a cast item.
I like some of the 034 products and have bought some, but just the "rs EM" is something that I don't like nor recommend to anyone.
Just my 0,02. No flaming please.-Comment

has anyone tried 034's rs2 em? They recommended it as the em of choice to go with the GT3071r when i contacted them. I'd like to think they're professional enough not to miss lead a potential customer if it wasn't any good?Old Stuff Reborn.Comment

Something must be Clear. Wagner is the Manufacturer of the Intake manifold and this Exhaust manifold they are going to produce. In this case 034 seller of these parts.
the 034 RS2-Replica manifold is something else and not Cast. I believe they are going to sell the Wagner cast manifold in the future.Go Holset or Go RS4Comment

I'm only here to reference your post about "not trusting" our numbers, you are absolutely entitled to your opinion, and if you have "facts" you'd like to post disputing any of our products, then I'd be the first to want to see them.I don't trust those figures a bit after 034 measured their own "rs2 EM".

However, all the flow #'s we post are flowed by an independent flow tester in our town, we would NEVER falsify #'s like this, what would be the benefit to us?
We are a not a fly-by-night company, we intend to be aroud for YEARS to come, and with only a sterling reputation. If in 2 years someone posts #'s that prove we lied, how would that benefit us?
The flow #'s we post are right off the flow bench, all manifolds are tested under the same exact conditions.

I'm sure Porkkis can reply for himself. But I think he is referring to the way that each runner is flowed on its own, not how exhaust gas actually flows, using more than one runner at a time. I don't think he is disputing the numbers.I'm only here to reference your post about "not trusting" our numbers, you are absolutely entitled to your opinion, and if you have "facts" you'd like to post disputing any of our products, then I'd be the first to want to see them.

That's correct. I'm absolutely not saying that anyone would be lying.
And I just don't like the EM design where runners are combined in one using T-pieces. Extreme example would be one BMW cast turbo EM that I saw. All runners got combined in one log and turbo was located at cyl 1 or 6. Probably flows quite nicely when single runner is measured, but would it be good?
I've bought 034 stuff and I don't have anything against the company. I just don't like the design of the "rs2 replica" EM. That's all.
I said the same about IM figures. If someone would measure 5 EGTs... that would be very interesting IM comparsion.
I'm no doctor in science so no facts, just opinions.
ps. I found it:

This looks very interesting. Does anyone know about how many HP it will keep up with?
f.ex 450++ ??Audi RS4+Long sportquattro

My German is minimal but if that's 540E for for a finished manifold and it's a direct replacement for the standard item then this looks like a winner! Wonder if you can get a discount for buying the IM and EM as a pair :mischeif:Der Preis wird bei 540 Euro liegen.Cheers'en, AndyC
