I made good power on my RCautoworks log manifold. Also, Bob's customer service is top notch and his quality is awesome. Also very competitive with price. Check link in sig.

from what i've seen of the blox manifolds, they look similar to inlinepro manifolds. they typically make decent stuff so i wouldnt mind trying one out.

as for wastegates, i'd only get tial.

a crappy wastegate can cause boost leaks or spikes. too small of a wastegate can also cause these problems.

My Tial 38mm WG has never spiked once, and thats reassurance on my gsr motor. It's one of the most expensive parts I bought on my entire setup, but worth it.
