Title: anyone changed a manifold for a 4 branch?
Post by: Judderi on 08 October 2004, 15:46

I have got a 4 branch stainless manifold to go on my valver. My mechanic is a bit unsure as to how to fit it. He seems to think he will have to drop the engine bed and engine to get it in. is this the case?

I've recently had a TSR 4 branch fitted to my valver (1.8) and my mechanic needed to remove the inlet to gain access, 3 hours labour in total.

Worth while doing, shes a bit more pokey in the mid range, power delivery is a lot smoother and it makes a zinging noise when u boot it :D
