whats that stuff over your airbox ?

any pics of it

manifold looks nice, how much was it

 

[Turkish]

Looks alot better than the rusty, cast, pile of crap that normally sits under the bonnet of a valver.

 

[Smokey]

Isnt the SS one sposed to be no better then the Valver one??

Must admit it looks mint

Tom was your original manifold painted silver? If so wanna sell it to me?

 

[_Tom]

Brun - its some kind of insulation tape i think. It was on there when i got it. Steve who i got it from modded the airbox so it has a duct to the from blanking plate and that tapes something to do with that. Sorry cant be much more help!

Smokey - there isnt a massive difference but as i said this seems to make it oull quicker and harder after 4k. btw this is the valver s/s manifold not the willy. Its totaly chnaged the sound of the car too! As for the old manifold, sorry mate im keepin it.

Cheers Loony!

Well i would say it adds as much power as a chip. Think they are about £350 or something. Mine came with the car when i bought it though, had just never been fitted.

Yep it pops and bangs a treat. When its hot some of the bangs are scary loud! lol

Brun the tape used on the airbox is from halfords, aluminium tape.

Yeah it is quite weird! Still got the low down torque but seems to give a extra kick at 4k?!

 

[Winston]

Mine has the 4k pull too

You like the sound?....mine took some getting used to, quite raspy

 

[steve a]

LOL^

Tom the centre box is straight through.

I like the sound at low revs and when coming down from revs. Real burbly!

The rasp on the other hand im not to sure of! Only seems to get raspy above 4k. Im slowly gettin used to it though. Makes the exhaust note totaly diff. Sounds more sl*g if u ask me!

Ahh ok steve! Cheers
