Also corsa_sport if you heat wrap the whole exhaust system surley that cant be gd for the cooling side of things?? Wont itjust make your engine overheat majorly


Read that three times, and it still doesnt make sense.

How would the engine overheat??

Manta would spit flames on high rev gear changes.

I've been told that mine flames on a 5th-3rd/4th-2nd rapid gearchange. I've yet to see it though. Late setup XE with a de-cat.

Not cars that are made to flame, cars that flame as a by product of tuning e.g F2 - 480bhp 1.8 20v turbo
