The one value I see in the power pipe set up is that you can order a set that is split, which means you can tighten those dratted manifold bolts down like they want to be instead of letting them float from side to side to accept the expansion that takes place in a stock manifold. Anything that splits the exhaust into two parts will improve the slant in this way. For a daily driver, it might be fine. You will still have to make new exhaust pipes, so your cost is going to be more like $500 or more before you are done.
It is too bad we weren't all open to a dialogue here to get a better part designed and produced. It kind of reminded me of a scene in a Kurt Vonnegut novel where a little man from outer space came to Earth to share a cure for cancer with the human race. The only problem was the place where the little man came from communicated by tap dancing a farting. When he came into the first house he saw, tap dancing and farting the information to cure cancer, he was beaten to death.

seems to me like they're tap dancing that they cure cancer, while they're really farting.
If you go back to the original thread, initially the product was well received. However, when Mr. Twister refused to give any proof of his claims about the product, or even a price, things went downhill fast. You also have to recall that he started slinging mud at Doug's products while still not giving any information about his own.
Truth is that a log style manifold is not as efficient as even a stock manifold. Yes, it could solve the issue of manifold cracking, but not when the product is a poorly made piece of expensive junk.
