i must admit that i had a stainless mani before but the run of the mill ones you see about it lasted about 1-2 months still waiting on the contact aout the tomie item, i have however spoken to a uk tuner who said that the standard mani is fine but need to be opened up a little, to the same size as the gasket and head, he reakons do this and all will be good :thumbs:

I must say it makes sense, but ill take a look when i strip it out in the next week or so

mild steel is the way to go if you dont want it to crack. If your going for a stainless unit then id suggest a flexi piece somewhere in the exhaust system, this will relieve alot of the stress on the mani

I believe the design is based on what people had said to Bren that they wanted in a mani...

Absolutely.

And for ?105 in a group buy, it's gonna be hard to resist.

Just remember its a turbo off job.

 

[sushiming]

how much gain did u get with ur nicely?? really wanna know if its really worth the $$ :thumbs:

 

[Dazz0i]

turbo off... so braided lines and gasket kit prices to be added!

 

[Nicely]

Like I said before, until you are running over 320-330bhp, its not worth it, as the standard mani is up to the job. There are gains and losses with fitting one.

 

[Kango]

but, does the turbo spin up quicker due to less of a restriction?

 

[Nicely]

By itself, slower. With all of the other mods which go with 320+, faster. That's on the original Apex style mani design.
