Right Lads, this is the mani i ordered from 034, looks promising.

Here is the description they gave me:

TT/S3 255 High flow manifold, flows 35% more than stock, we've seen good gains of 10% power increase at the wheels. Comes with hand ported collector, retail $395. High temperature barrier coating, (semi-gloss
black) designed to withstand 1000C continuous, Available for additional 100$ and is highly recommended. Shipping is 85$ each.

That looks quite nice. If you get that before turbo I think you should fit it just to see what gains you get.

This is the colour i am thinking of changing my BBS to, i think it rocks better than black.

No sure who's car it is, but it looks awesome

hi mate cheers for link and sent email,

why didnt you for coating? and whens it due into customs?

Because it took 2 additional weeks, also my WMI keeps EGT down, last time i had it on the RR i did 15 runs one after the other, EGT didn't go above 900c.And i feel like taking a risk LOL.

I will be shipped today so i should have it next week.

ok mate cool i see now,

who you getting to map the car?

cant wait to see the results as i have basically the same setup, :)

I use a guy in Ireland that does tuning for the Brit Car Championship, if he cant do the Hybrid i am considering going to the UK for the weekend, get my car tuned, go on the piss, get the ferry home monday,:lol:

It should be very interesting to see the 2 setups and the differences, i think most if it will come down to the person tuning it.

Paid $480 delivered for the mani and no i didn't get it coated, i think some of this coating is marketing BS, another reason is if my EGT get to 1000c i have other issues to worry about LOL

thats alright then,

something like this is my next mod i think ;)

Hurry up and get it all built!!
