[QUOTE="atafonso, post: 599018, member: 23592"] If you chop the tubes and install flexi pipes you run the risk of the manifold coming loose on the heads and/or having vaccum leaks. It's quite a heavy assembly for being suported only by two 6mm nuts on each side. The pipes also perform the function of making the assembly sturdy. If you compare with the dual port manifold, you can see the DP has a support in the middle attached to the case. The difference in torque will exist due to lower air velocity on the larger tubes, but IMHO i think it will not be really noticeable. Abel [/QUOTE]
