Will it need matching to the gasket as well or just smoothing once welded? I am right in thinking that the manifold is stainless?

I love you two. Answered in full. Shall I use a flap wheel or similar Fred?

Nonce.

What's the neat touch Mark, do tell.

I can vouch for Pauls work. I described the difference as feeling like I had a passenger in the car when standard. My next port of call will be Wayne at Chipwizards I think. Circa £400 but fully live mapped.

Just found this after a recommendation on Migweb (http://www.demontweeks.co.uk/products/ProductDetail.asp?cls=MSPORT&pcode=NIM1004)

Try 8200535890, that's the part number on my invoice but the charging was all wrong so I'm not 100% sure. Unit price £16.47, Net total £14.91 plus £2.61 VAT = £17.52. I just asked for a 225/197 badge.

Is it worth it on a road car though FMP? How much does decent wrap and HT paint cost?

Will I see a noticeable benefit if I don't plan on tracking the car?

Evening Kully. There's a big jump in cost with the ceramic coating. JohnC paid £180 for his doing which is 3x the price of my manifold itself.

When my 182 manifold arrives, I plan to wrap it or have it ceramic coated. The downside with the ceramic coating is the cost involved. I have found this wrap on Ebay...

Very nice car mate. Enjoy it.

b*****d.

Off topic. What happened to your Cup Gaz? Any bits up for grabs, ie Momo Race? ;)

As above. I've looked at the pictures of the 182 manifold and the link pipe and there appears to be a hole for a Llambda in each. Am I right in thinking that blocking the second hole and boxing up the lambda will prevent the light from illuminating?

My thoughts on declaring mods' are that not only are you fully covered and are removing a reason for them not to pay out but most decent companies will also replace the mod in the event of a claim rather than just use a standard part.

Sounds like my kind of mod', torque is definately the future. Have you had it mapped or RR'd since Kully?

That's not that bad all in Kully, it does make mine look like a Barry Argain though. It will probably turn out to be a 1.2 manifold when it arrives.

1500KG!!! You having a laugh Edde, book is 1110 on a FF.

Flux. I've just paid £523 with 5 years no claims and no points plus all mod's declared and it's a big list.

I seem to remember a post many moons ago by a member who worked for an insurance company. Apparently, one of the first things their claims assessors do is to check the ECU for the number of re-flashes, especially on a car such as a 172/182. They then cross reference this with the data held on...

I've got a cat' on the way as well for a similar price and a link pipe lined up. This will cost me £250 max'.

^^^That's a dealer picture! Looks ok from here but the grime could hide a lot.

I think i'll just bite the bullet and drop the lot. Still waiting for my manifold to arrive, but I did only pay £55 so I can wait all month at that price.

Looks sweet as matey. Where did you have the ceramic coating done and how much was it?

I've just renewed with Flux now, but managed to knock £165 off of the price by saying I had received a cheaper quote with Privelige and Greenlight.

A diesel box?

Cheers Ben, so I just need to loosen the bolts all around and then lower the rear section down on the studding? Any idea of the thread time on the studding? PM'd

Looks good. Clio_Bus, the Cup 172 badges would be a good decal as fitted to the door of Cups. The badges usually fall off but a decal would look great.
