Default pic/info wanted of a s2 ZT with a ROVER inlet manifold

hello there i have just got an adapter plate from freiday engineering and a rover 220 turbo inlet manifold for my zetec turbo

i was wondering if anyone has a picture of one fitted to a s2 or can tell me if the throttle body end needs cuting and re welding to a new position to avoid contact with coil pack servo/brake fluid reservoir and what throttle body was used

its currently running a 1.8 escort inlet manifold so cross fingers the rover inlet willl free up the top end a bit and stop the heatsoak in trafic

and anyone know what idle control valves work well with omex 600? because i will have to get the manifold alterd to get one of thease to fit and would be nice to have the right one for the job ie mild anti lag

cheers

Best thing to do is to cut the old throttle body end of the manifold off straight across the manifold so that the new throttle body will sit at 90degrees to the manifold. (you should be able to make out the silver TB attached to my black manifold in my sig pic).

I use a cossie throttle body and ISCV by the way.........

Hope this helps a bit!
