To be fair, the F1 engines in the 80's (IIRC) were turboed but they oulawed turbos for some reason I haven't bothered to research.

Ye they outlawed Turbos and Ground Effect, they rekon if you where aloud to use ground effect today they could corner at 200mph!!!!!!
And they used to get all that horse power out of 1.4 Turbos!!!
Just think how much power you could get out of Cossie lump if you had millions to spend?!?!?!?!?

The exhaust manifolds, like everything else on a F1 car, are lifed for time /Km's used . If you want pairs go to the Jaguear shop at Silverstone , they normally have several pairs out of " life " for a few hundred quid, works of art too .
