Default tubular exhaust manifold - FRST

have spoke to primary designs about one, very very helpful and very friendly, however does anyone know of other companies that do decent quality tubular exhaust manifolds.

dont wanna go to the first one i find as they are prob the most expensive but prob the best but wanna see the options first!

Hansen used to do his for around Ł480 AFAIK. I personally wouldn't pay anymore than that for a manifold. They aren't even really a problem, mine is still standard.

If only there was a decent one for sensible money! I do have a little plan though, not anything that's going to happen soon though.

Mark, I am still astonished by your Torque. The tubular manifold would be more likely to kill peak torque, making the engine breathe easier. If you place a restriction in the system, it will give it a high torque figure, but an inability to make good power at high RPM.

Good result though, I can't wait to see it in action!

sorry, forgot to mention that i want one to move the turbo over the gearbox!

do the ones jamsport move the turbo?

its not really just for power and torque but also to move he turbo away from the rad to help with temps a little as the airflow will be better to the turbo there and wont have to have it wrapped so that heat soak aint so big a prob!
