engine swap in a 3dr cossie and a 4x4 saph
4x4 manifold on 4x4 engine in 4x4 car. exhaust fits.
3dr manifold on 3dr engine in 3dr car. exhaust fits.
3dr manifold on 4x4 engine in 3dr car. Will exhaust fit without mods to downpipe?
4x4 manifold on 3dr engine in 4x4 car. Will exhaust fit without mods to downpipe?
Am trying to work out if it is worth changing the manifolds over or just leave things as they are and mod the exhaust to make things work.
Anyone know if the turbos locate the exhaust in the same place.
They look like they're in the same place but would like to know for sure.

there is no difference between the 3dr and the 4x4 engines (manifold fitting position wise)
the only differece is between the exhaust manifolds themselves - watch the exhaust on the anti roll bar, as, if I remember correctly, the turbo sits a little higher on the 4x4 manifold (but in the same place front-rear and side to side)
so if you've fitted a 4x4 manifold on a 3dr engine in a 4x4 car, then the exhaust will fit with the 4x4 manifold in a 4x4 car with either engine

Got it sorted.
Left the manifolds on their own engines and just added some tube to the downpipe on the 4x4 car.
Rebuilding the 3dr exhaust in 2.5" since the 3" is pretty drony between 2-3k.
Cheers for replies.
