I kind of agree with what you just said, other then what you said earlier " An equal length manifold should help smooth out that curve. " which I do not agree with. While the manifold design can limit the power, help/hurt spool up etc, it all depends on what they are shooting for. It was just the smoothing comment which is/was misleading for people who have no experience to read.

But for smooth curve i think that's all in the tunning not manifold design.

Correct.

I know for a fact that on a 1600 stock cammed motor, a T3/T4 57 trim compressor should be making that power at or around 1 bar (+/- 20%). Maybe I wasn't too clear about it.

But anyway, not to take anything away from his work, I was just mentioning that on the basis of what I've read.

What I meant by that was, most of the time your posts are pretty correct, by saying at 1 bar your car should make xxx HP is misleading. For someone who doesn't know any better, they will take that 1 bar comment and use it as reference for someone else with a different size turbo/motor etc.. just based on "T3/T4" + "1 bar".. which is a common mistake. And I didn't see a turbo size in that H-T thread you linked..
