Title: Is this manifold ok?
Post by: DarranJones on November 23, 2006, 03:54:50 PM
Anyone have any idea whether this might be an ok manifold for a t04e or something? After all, it\'s only a bit of welded pipe and a few flanges isn\'t it :rollin

That be me, why have you seen the old girl ??

I am an impatient sod at the best of times, I cannot wait to get back behind the wheel.  Got some coilovers to go on and a new driver\'s seat as well, end of next week and I\'ll be back.  Chose the best time of year too :o

There\'s been a lot of hoo haa on the US forums about these manifolds being crap and cracking at the welds, although there rarely seems to be any evidence supplied in the threads. For 130 spods you probably can\'t go far wrong.
