On the facts (50.7g cocaine plus paraphernalia indicating an established manufacturing operation), the 13-year starting point adopted by the judge for the manufacturing charge was not manifestly excessive; however the 4-month consecutive sentence for the applicant's 0.31g possession could not be justified as it would not have affected the trafficking sentence and therefore must run concurrently, reducing the total sentence from 9 years to 8 years 8 months.
