I'm also using a 6-port Renesis in my project.  I might well be
interested in this manifold instead of building it myself.

        I was surprised to find that no one has a tuned manifold for sale
for the six-port. Once I dug into the project of building one for myself, I
realized just how much effort it was going to be to design and fabricate a
custom, lightweight, properly-tuned manifold. I figured that it would be
silly to have EVERYONE duplicate this effort, so I decided to take the
extra effort to make molds, rather than use moldless construction.

        I figure if the manifold I build makes over 200 HP and is
lightweight, other folks will want a duplicate.

        It would be a LOT easier to CNC the runners out of foam, lay up
epoxy composite on the outside of the foam runners, then dissolve the foam
away. Making molds is more than twice the effort.

Yes! Been there done that with the four port cast aluminum turbo manifold.
