J1mbo, they are just fantastically well made, the devil is in the detail, the collectors, the seamless entry from the flange to the pipework, that sort of thing, for a one man band outfit, its very impressive, but yes im sure people like Primary Designs etc can do just as good a job (for twice the cost)

Really talented guy, RIP

J1mbo, the ones you use are probably fantastic as well, you have to remember that your dad is one of the best in the business and as such the stuff that you view as "normal" cause he has it around all the time, is to those of us who move in less priveleged circles a really awesome bit of kit that we rarely see anything to rival.

Peterg WAS top of the line, you cant compare what 2 guys do to one car, but what they do to many cars, and there was peterg a one of a kind.
Finish quality and performance of the manifolds is almost out of this world, an i know cause i have seen the results and how he did make them.
NOT telling that your dad isen´t as good as peter was.

Jimbo,

Three things.

1)Who is your old man and what is his business called?

2)I see you use Fastway couriers. I did too until my local franchise went bust.

3)And finally, what alarm is triggered at 2 bar?

Well peter havent got a web side anymore, but the flanges the way the ext wg is positioned, the special bends and the weldings etc is extremely the same design that peter did almost 2 years ago now, but he could have copied it from your dad then...

This is the last design peter made to cosworth, this one was made for track spec engines, which gave a small peak in mid-range


This one is for a saab 9000 turbo


Quick Reply: New peterg have arrived :D
