You can get the very last 172's on 04 plates so be careful. The 172 one is 4-1, the 182 is 4-2-1 ;)

^Yep 172's can be on an 04 plate.

Bargain for 80£ will cost you about a couple of hundred to get fitted tho. No a five min job and you need to fabricate a link pipe too.

No 172 with a 182 mani has ever made the difference between the 172 and 182 as std tho... If you follow my drift.

yes rather diffcult unless your father works at magnex ;) lol

This mod is just all part of my master plan, already got a cat back exhaust, ITG filter with enlarged airfeeds also having a set matched inlets and a remap in the new year!

Then that will be it for the modding, what kind of BHP do you think it should be after all this?

Personally i am hoping for around 400BHP :rasp: but more like 180 - 185ish?

Sounds good to me Ali...

What are your thoughts on coating or wrapping the mani before fitting, worth it or not?

Yeh i did e-mail him regarding delivery but he didnt botrher getting back to me about that?

I thought i would risk it and throw a last minute bid in ;)

A few minutes after the auction ended he e-mailed me his phone number and said ring me..

He then agreed to meet me near enough half way, so instead of a 140 odd mile round trip it will only be a 90mile trip for me :D
