well said Rick... I am one of those that a 6 to 8k price tag would make me hard pressed not to buy.
digidon kept the ac I believe but I don't think you can compare the manifold he made to what BPC probably had in mind. not to knock the Don in any way as his build is absolutely amazing but I think BPC would have to make too many quality and manufacturing compromises in a mass market manifold to make it work to their standard.
Now if they were planning on making a log manifold or some weird design that's mainly designed to fit more than for top performance... say 15% less efficient for sake of argument... I'd still be interested if the power and tq curves we're similarly shaped. Just saying.
Regardless I'm still following their race development closely cuz it's gnarly af
