would this be down to incorrect ignition timing or just giving
it to much right foot,the car is a s2 erst

Too much of your right foot mate, nowt to worry about as this used to happen on my old rs alot.

Once read on an American Audi Forum about a guy who took his Audi in for service and they have him an A3 1.8 Turbo. He had photo's on there of the Exhaust glowing red halfway down the car. I wish I still had them.

giving it sum stick cause the turbo ive got on it is off a saab
and hasnt got a water feed on it so i always let it cool down

Good to see someone with the imagination to have a go.

Is it Stainless or Mild?

Christian and Beccy its Stainless steel

Im sure you know, Stainless Manifolds are prone to cracking. I would put small strengthening plates on any areas that might be stressed. Such as between the Flange and the pipes

It really does look impressive though.

where could i get a plate for the turbo and head as i wouldnt mind
having a go at sumthing like that myself

Hansenturbo

thanks m8 yes i know that Stainless Manifolds are prone to cracking and this is a prototype and i know i have to strength with small plates on the areas where it might be stressed

You really need to use inconel to stop the cracking, the main problem is due to the differing thicknesses of the system and the different expansion rates.

Ginge !

sorry forgive me if im stupid but what amd i ment to be looking at

lancia delta 6 times WRC

Just a glowing manifold, i thought it looked cool

Christian and Beccy

Thats pretty hot. Looks just like all the other Red hoses.

Ginge !

thats what i was thinking christian

think on other manufacturers cars we need a before and after piccy to help us out

When i had my grale a few of the lads did lots of research into materials for manifolds and the only one suitable for the temp ranges was stupidly expensive and very hard to work (inconel).
