So there's a few exhaust manifolds/headers out now which supposedly get rid of the torque dip.

One which come to mind are Nameless, FA20Club and Borla UEL.

So the first two above look reasonably similar, but the Borla is completely different. So it's not safe to assume the extra length of the first two is causing the increase in torque, as the Borla doesn't have that.

Discuss.
