Hello, my first post here!

I’m after more information on this inlet manifold. Other than being bloody expensive and used on stupidly powerful Cossys does anyone have any real information? After lots of asking around I’m still no closer to obtaining one. Infact, most people haven’t seen on in the flesh yet. What’s going on? Why are these hard to get? Please could you answer my following questions?

Are these still being made?
Who makes them?
Where do I buy one from?
Anyone trying to get shot of one?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers.

i think Martin from Reyland has one on his escort, v helpful guy, might be worth giving him a ring??

 

You can get them from a guy on here called 'steveboyslim'

PM him.

hope that helps.

 

Cheers, thanks for the quick replies.

Also PM'd

 

Hope you guys are sitting down when steve gives you the price

 

so true although cheaper than going direct

I actually enjoyed playing the "how much is this worth" game with one of the hubs he had in his van, strangely I was about a grand out

 

Chip, with what ive already spent on the car in the past 2 years, i dont think its going to scare me that much anymore

but i may not be able to warrant the cost tho.

 

Kelv, true, I suppose if its a big money car, another couple of K on an inlet doesnt really matter.

and they just look SSSOOOOO good, it really is the ultimate in YB engine fashion!

 

they do look the dogs danglies Chipper

it will all depend on price, as you say its easy to spend 'just' another couple of K, but it soon adds up quickly.

by the time its on the road/useable im going to be rapidly aproaching 50k that ive spent on it since its been off the road

(i need counselling!)

 

any jobs going at your place mate?

 

not at the moment, bit of restructuring going on.

but i do believe they are looking at taking on new staffing into the new year.


- although i do presume that was a hypathetical Q.

 

yeah, was only a joke, i can earn good money in my current role if I actually bother to do some work rather than surf PF all day

 

 

Does anyone know exactly whats going on with these bloody inlets I here they are still being made in small quantities. Or is this bullshit?

 

did you not speak to Steve then mate?

i asked him the right questions and he was happy to answer.

im now currently seeing what else i may need to compliment what he has for sale and weigh up if its worthwhile.

 

are you allowed to post a price on here?? or is it all secret??

 

they are not my goodies for sale so i dont know if its a secret or not.

possibly not tho.

just pop a PM over to him, im sure he'll be ok.

 

That is correct.

The genuine MIS is no longer made.
I got mine from a Norwegian rallycross escort.



Mr Martin schanke, the rallycrossdriver from Norway, can get new, reproduced inlets, made from the same equipment that MIS used before. I bought one of him, before i got a hold of the genuine one. The price was about Ł2500.



The gold one is the one Martin can/could get.

If you want, i can call him, and see if its still possible to get them.

how do these compare with the blue sprint ones that are made?? anyone had any experience with them??

 

Out of curiousity, why did you buy a genuine one, when you already had the copy that Martin produced?

 

Is it me or do the original MIS inlet manifolds LOOK like they are better quality?

 

its just a better finish on the metal, but that would be quickly remedied when powercoated.

 

I would imagine that is why it HAS been powder coated .

 

Those "look" the same as the ones Steve has/had, I didn't think much to the finish either but who really cares about that

 

pics of another manifold should be with you in 10-15 mins

 

whats the sensor in the fuel rail for?

 

Because the black genuine one would fit my plans for the enginebay better.

They are not powdercoated. They have been in a bath to get the color, dont know the English word for it.

Fuelpressure directly to the ecu

 

Looks like a temp sensor to me Fredrik..

 

+1 feul pressure sensons are much bigger right !?

ps you have a good day martin ? you seemed happy on the phone lol

 

I'd be up for that!!! How far is birmingham from Derby though for a daily commute?

Currently doing around 50mile a day commuting to work (Denis Welch motorsport) but would much rather be working on more modern stuff for a living.......saying that, working on a million quids worth of Aston race car has it's moments in my current daily routine

 

That can be very right. thats not my rail. I Switced the rails when i bought it, so im using the rails from the gold one on mine.

 

wheres this pic then Jimothy?

what throttles do you use with these, and are they easily sourcable?

Fredricke - quickie coming over to you on MSN mate

 

what pic u on about !! lol

 

 

nothing to do with you

johhny bravo wanted lots of pics of mountune roller barrel throttle set ups look like and work so i took looads and send him them on PRIVATE MESSAGE

you can have pics if you want !

 

Yes please, im working thru options of inlets at the moment - and relevant costs associated
