i have to admit, stock round port manifold is even better!

Id rather a stock round port mani anyday over this.
At low engine speeds might be perfect for torque
but Im sure midrange and top end is restricting.

Looks like the engineers were going for a very long runner, for increased power at low RPM.

Engineers must have been dismissed in this case for beancounters

I feel the intended market for this car couldn't care less, it is an econo box after all. I do admit though, there hasn't been many exciting japanese cars from the factory since the end of the 90's.
