My s1 didn't have Motorsport on the manifold? Maybe it's a manifold from the ford Motorsport turbo kit for an xr3 (which spawned the s1)

There was two types TT 1180 was the better one for using on the RS turbo, i found one for 10 quid!!!

The other one has a slightly different design and i believe was offered as a conversion for carb based cars where the other was made for mfi spec. The carb version is clearly stamped with Turbo Technics. The other just having the TT 1180 as mentioned before.

Would be very interested in seeing some pics of this ''Motorsport'' one though
