why go for a 2wd manifold at this level? Only need a 2wd manifold if going over 450ish BHP... Also consider you will need to extend your down pipe or it will hit the front prop or body if it is not absoloutly striaght... You need to rotate the compressor housing I belive

Working hard then?

Went Gliding with a few Navy and Army lads at Halton, top lads usual banter, argueing about what was best etc but the best quote I heard was " there are more planes in the sea than ships in the sky.." Hard to retort to that ..

You on a 2wd manifold? what did you do, just chop and weld the 4x4 downpipe? My 4x4 saff is running a 2wd manifold, T4 but still on the 4x4 mongoose downpipe, but the car is now 2wd so the prop dosn't hit, and I was wondering if a 2wd exhaust would fit it now? simple eh?

Snowed under mate

Yeah Tri-Service piss ups are usually a good bitching session Pongos are a bit thick though


I'm on a 4x4 manifold now so clears front prop easily. trevCOSS just modded his downpipe to clear his front prop as he's gone 2wd manifold.

Diva has a nice Escos 2wd system
