That looks l=more expensive than the Z1r. What does the intake manifold look like on the Z1R.

Magnuson intake manifold on the Z1R is a two piece unit. One side bolts to the head, the other side bolts to the blower with a gaskit in between. One of the sides has a blow off valve which is spring loaded and adjustable. Not a waste gate - just a safty precaution in case of a backfire. Backfires are bad on blowers
It also has a pressure tap so that a hose can be attached and go to a boost gauge or in my case, the ignition to handle boost retard. It also has another boss that I could tap out for another pressure outlet if I needed it.As you can see - the manifold is very thin from back to front unlike some of the more modern turbo manifolds we see on the market today. Not particularly better, just different.
Hope that helps.
