u cant have it with a central entry manifold, as the the throttle body fouls it - never mind the charge pipe.

best bet is to get an XR3i or RS1600i inlet manifold to go with it.

To make it fit you have to cut out the ford motorsport badge and weld it in lower and get rid of the 7 centre fins and part of the 6th and 7th fins in from the right ,cut off the centre tube and weld a plate in ,then weld a new tube on the left side like an rs turbo one ,then weld in some brackets for your charge pipe to screw into.

Sacrelidge IMO

Far too much work, i originally bought the one Dave now has forgetting what exactly was involved.

I unwrapped it and was like that looks mint, placed it on the car and just went

The centre breater pipe sits inside the throttle housing

Didn't have it in me to destory it
