probably a silly question but having not seen my standard manifold and up pipe i dont know weather this manifold ive just brought has the up pipe already fitted??????



its for a MY00

 

Looks like it.

 

phew, was startin to ****e myself thinkin it wasnt such a bargin, the part on the right looks like the up pipe tho

 

The single pipe on the right is the up-pipe. Are those Megan Headers?

 

the up pipe is a very large bore by the looks of it.....spool up wouldnt be that great!

 

And then the thing will blow itself apart 6 months down the road IMO of course.

 

I had a set of those megan headers on my car, unfortunatly they only lasted about 7 months, split all the welds on the 4 into 1 section, they are very poor quality.

 

im not liking the sound of this

 

To be honest mate you would be better off with ported standard headers unless you are going for big power.

You have to choose your up-pipe very carfully as it can affect turbo spool up(turbo comes in later) as said earlier in this thread. I think 46/48 mmm is the best size but don't quote me on it.

 

thanks for the reply, were can i ger my standard headers wrapped/polished/ported?

im in the mids

 

Are mechanicaly (spelling) minded?

 

As you could do it yourself other than that Harvey smith(do a search) is your man.
