Manifolds - tubular or short custom pros and cons

[kiopcio]

Got my hands on 2260vk for 2.0 BKD 16V now, manifolds found potential candidates one from Xman’s Turbos short manifold and darkside finest tubular. I use my car daily therefore need it to spool quicker over max power, only aming for 240-260.
What and why
Thanks

Log manifolds tend to get slightly quicker spool as the volume in the exhaust manifold is smaller so the average pressure tends to be higher. But as you probably know if your looking for ultimate power the tubular manifold with a merged collector is the way to go. Just as much though when looking for a decent daily driver is the tuning of the engine. A good tuner will probably get a better spool out of tubular manifold than a poor tuner with the log manifold.

Thanks Pal, what is the difference between 1.9 and 2.0 Tubular manifold? Somebody is selling one but doesn’t knw if 1.9 or 2.0 they look identical in photo.

P.s. he claims theres no serial numbers
