Maybe not, considering SBD's mild one is £200 and lexmaul stainless is over £300! I'd say you should be fine with std manifold, just make sure the rest of the system is pretty free-flow to reduce back pressure slightly. | |

Ok thanks for that, the engine has had a bit of work, cams and will be prted and polished and probably chipped with the usual filter and exhaust. Is it worth it? | |

What manifold do you want instead and what is your state of tune? The std one is fine, SBD do a mild steel one for around £200 and Lexmaul £330. They only offer minor gains on a std engine but if you tune it a bit you'll see a lot more benefits from an aftermarket manifold. | |

you also need spaces for the anti-roll bar! | |

I'd use 2.25" bore. So your getting a custom manifold made? The std manifold is stainless 4-2-1 and is good for 180/190 BHP. | |

I'll be puttin an XE in my corsa soon and i was wondering about the manifold, i've read that it sits quite close to the ground and close to the anti-roll bar, i'll be gettin a full custom exhaust when the engine is in, but is there any companies that offer a 4-2-1 manifold for corsa conversions that i can get the exhaust fitted to? |
