There's loads of manifolds on ebay.de, theres an adapter plate for using 20v manifolds too which looks quite interesting.  I think my biggest worry is the engine management - megasquirt seems the best value but theres quite a lot of setting up involved  :huh:  :evil:

tell me about it!! they tend to go off the idea when john talks about custom manifolds, brackets, etc got to say though his is soooo sweet sounds incredible.

What a turbo :huh: is he on here i wouldn't mind a chat :grin: :kiss:

no he's not on here and its not turbo'd. he was going to turbo it to get over 400bhp and got all the parts but then decided he just loves how it is and how it drives so is sticking to super charged. oh that and a fully blueprinted race spec 16v on throttle bodies which he's putting in a westfeild which is almost all carbon fibre!!! should fly.......

I spoke to one of our Bodyshop people today and his mate had a Rallye pushing 280Bhp from a 8v G60. Thats would be fast enough.

(he staked in though :cry:)
