GTM is making a tower brace just for this conversion kit! Stay tuned guys it will look sick! I talked to the fabricators and we discussed a couple of ideas to help increase rigidity while also showcasing the manifold

Who cares about a pound or two for some pipes if you have 1000hp to play with...

Do you think that the GTR manifold might benefit the N/A guys as well or is it better suited to forced induction applications?

Nothing. And if that were the answer I got, I would say: ah, makes sense.
