Like i said on RSC, its w**k.

without sounding stupid but what difference is this manifold to the willy one, performance wise? Looks nice but will it discolour over time?

Yep, it will... but it will have nice colours of a rainbow, and that looks great! it changes colour almost immediatly, week of trashing or so...

 

[BenR]

it will discolour yes, mostly to a brown/bronze but the high heat areas will reach a blue-ish.

It differes from the williams in that its a 4-2-1 unlike the willy which is a 4-1. This manifold is poorly designed. the primaries are far too short, the secondaries near non existent, its built from readily available bent sections of tube, the angles used are too agressive. And cylinder #1 has a poor port exit.

Designed with a ruler and protractor! lol

 

[Ben j]

so wat one do u recommmend ben? from where?

 

[BenR]

Well, until you compare the std 4-2-1 with that one youll never really know.

It might end up being better but not good by far.

What do i reccomend.........erm, wat cna you afford lol.

I cant afford most of what i recommend.

 

[BUTRE]

no collectors on this manifold? bad bad bad.

k-tec ex manifold seems to be of good design...

...but expensive.

why not go to a custom made one?
Try this guys... http://www.sdwlightfabrications.co.uk/http://www.sdwlightfabrications.co.uk/
Have seen some custom jobs made by them and seem very good.

 

[northy]

Just bought a K-Tec one . Made by a company called prowler.
Just need to order new gaskets, then ill let you know what colours it goes.

 

[stan*]

the world of motorsport is indeed a fickle 1, when a tuned exhst manifold is geting sold on its merits of colour change!!

 

[BUTRE]

We dont care about color... we want more power!! let us know if your 0-400mts are done in less time.

 

[Adams_16v]

iv got a k-tec one. v happy with it, and the guy who built my engine commented on how good it was!

 

[william]

One of my first modifications was supersprint manifold and catback exhaust. dynod 160 bhp with those and a pipercross filter. So thats the one i can recommend...

 

[david16v]

i have a k tec ss manifold and the colours are verry nice especially on the first bend downwards ..... makes a nice noise too coupled to a de cat and ss system

 

[northy]

Do all with a K-tec manifold - have a ID tag with Prowler and a serial number on ?

As mine does.

Whadday mean no collectors......it would be a 4-4 if there were none.

 

[northy]

Had a returned email from the company making them. And the k-tec one is almost half the price of this one.

Ill give it a miss.

 

[BUTRE]

BenR mate... you always have to pick on me!

Collector taper 7 to 10degrees.
