Is this the one with a smiley face inked on it somewhere? Sure I've read something somewhere about this manifold lol | |

Mine is currently on Haimsey's car, and he re-painted it black. It's been through about 7 members on CS, but we had it as a set with the engine cover and strut brace which were all designed to fit perfectly with one another. | |

I loved it, very very easy to fit (and remove, and refit, on many occasions!) and gave decent extra power but mostly mid range, not top end like a Mantzel/power box. | |

Absolutely spot on advice that bud. Really appreciate it. Cheers! | |

I removed the Secondary Air Injection (SAI) pump on my old X16XE - I simply made up a small plate that I bolted in place with one of the SAI bolts and one of the manifold bolts, and sealed using a cut out from the old manifold gasket when I changed the manifold. | |

Only Daimo i reckon, him and Donna (owner of D5NNA, Fotki account still availiable but not for long) still laugh about it every time they pass on the stairs | |

C16 doesn't have a SAI, X16 does. Just make a plate and bolt it over the hole like most people do. | |

Orite lads, just after a bit of advice really. I'm just removing the Sai pump and realised it will leave a hole in the existing exhaust manifold if I take it out. While some people in other forums jam a spark plug in there I was wondering if a c16xe manifold will fit the x16xe engine? I imagine it will but wondered if there's any major differences. Before people suggest it I don't really want a performance manifold, simply because people report them sitting a lot lower to the ground than the standard one and sitting very close to the sump. If anyone has bought an aftermarket one that's been no problems in fact, let us know. Cheers in advance |
