K Tec 197/200 manifold

Anybody fitted K-Tec's full manifold to a 197/200 and if so thoughts?

I think everyone is waiting on a review of one of these but personally I can't see it being worth literally three times the price of the toyosport manifold replacement. I know what il be buying if mine ever needs replaced.

Looking at images of the Toyo the runners do not seem to be equal lenght. Runner no. 4 is clearly shorter. This could cause an imbalance between the cylinders. It could cause that cylinder to run rich due to the intake stroke being less efficient at certain RPMs. At some RPMs it could run lean and cause knocking which would make the ECU retard timing and run a more conservative fueling map.

Looking at the photos of the K-tec it clearly has more elaborate runners so I would presume them to be equal lenght. I don't own any of them but I would run K-tec or stock.
