wot happend to every1 group buying tubular manifolds for£180 ????????? did any1 get 1 and if so were they anygood???

 

this subject has gone a bit quite dont know what happened about them

 

i dont think they were completely as stated.

As £180 for a st/st- titaniam material, as it will cost that in material if more.
and 1.5mm wall, sounds toooo thin to me.

 

There may or may not be something in the pipeline......

 

share your knowledge then

 

There isn't really anything to report at this stage, but as soon as there is, you'll know about it.

Now I just need the person concerned to start talking to me.

 

k

prob wont rember but id love a pm if he gets in touch , would def have one !!

 

If they delivered the goods for that price, I would deffo be very interested.

 

i would be intrested aswell

 

I just bought the stainless pipes and bends for my manifold (2.5mm walls) and it was a total of 60e, so under 40£ without the cylinder head flange. The material cost seems to be quite close to 11e/kg whatever you buy of stainless.

 

But the bloke said its a titanum, not the usual 304 or 316 st/st.

 

not being funny BUT you wont get a titanum manifold for that kind of cash do any of you no wots involved in weldin this stuff????

 

Sort of,

as i'm a welder.

 

well you will no that not just any1 can work with the stuff [as you said sort of] im also a welder by trade and i didnt meen do you no about it , i ment every one interested in one of the manifolds

 

I guess we will see if/when I get mine......

 

does that mean you are not taking the jamsport 1 then ??

 

I said sort of, as i've never made a tubular manifold from scratch, but have modified/repaired ones before.
But as i do quite abit of tig'n and exhaust making on my own cars and others i roughly know the time/effort that needed.

 

The group buy manifold was not meant to be titanium. The company only was claimed to have some experience in working with it.

 

just found this on ebay...

wonder if theyll do a cvh one for the same money!!!

 

Why on earth would an American company want to mass produce a tubular manifold for a 15-20 year old car that they never even had over there (except the 1.9 of course)??

 

why not just cut the flange off we all no the ports line up
