Default PETERG - My manifolds that I was moaning about (now + pics)
Well, it took a while, but fuck me, they arrived today and they are STUNNING

Will get some pics up soon, but just wanted to post straight away to let everyone know that Peter was good to his word in the end on everything but timescales, the quality is absolutely superb.

FAR too pretty to fit to an old nova, lol




EDIT - PICTURES ADDED

Chip have you STILL not got any fucking pics up man!

Are these available for YB's? What advantages do they give and more importantly what power level do they become necessary?

Dan, yes they are available for the cossie too, and become particuarly useful above 600bhp, gains below that are relatively limited though as the 2wd manifold for the YB is so good to start with.

Yeah i'm aware of how good the 2wd Manifold it, certainly ok for 500bhp isnt it? and I won't be going anywhere near that on this engine!

500bhp on the 2wd is not a problem at all, been done LOADS of times.

No mate, im not selling them, they can be bought directly from PeterG in sweden though and are about 800 quid each IIRC
There are two different designs and I wasnt sure which would fit best so ordered one of each and I have a que of people wnating to buy whichever one I dont use already.

Not sure yet, will see what peter advises on that front when I get round to using it (which is going to be ages now as I got fed up waiting for it and put the car on the road using a normal one, lol)

one question chip, do both sets of manifolds have the same length of pipe from one end to the other?
if yes, why are they different shapes?
or is this what you are going to find out?

One sits the turbo with the inlet to the left, and the other to the right, I wasnt sure which would fit better in my car, so ordered both.
