a miltek or gmc manifold have a lot better configuration and allow the gases to flow a lot better hence increasing horsepower. more gas out = more fuel and air in, vice versa!

standard is cast and restrictive, normally has 4 pipes into 1 within a short distance.
aftermarket are normally 4-1 with 4 pipes that go all the way to the collector and join, if they are equal length and correct size they will give more power over the std setup.
