600 odd, but you need an inlet too, pointless unless going for BIG power..

cross over pipe doesnt go over the manifold... , so you need a new charge carrier , but jamsport sell it as a kit inc a new manifold re-routing it iirc

Ahhh

Didnt realise the crossover pipe got in the way

I know what your all saying about not needing tubular manifolds until your wanting mega power but i got mine 4 years ago and ive only got 235 - 240bhp.

Maybe not helping me but looks fookin awesome

I still don't get why they did not film the data being shown to back up the numbers being stated as the opportunity to do this was obviously there... at present it shows nothing more factual than a glowing manifold.
