does it follow the same route as std one, in the recess of the sump?

or does it sit low like the pro-tech manifold?

why not wrap it? the gases escape faster as its hotter,

its a mild steel manifold so wont crack

and if im removing the egr and secondry air pump i might aswell

and ill be doing it with it removed, not on the car

adam, it can rot much quicker when wrapped, not sure if its an issue for you, but its worth keeping an eye on.

got mine from halfords too, I remember the first time my mate (vaux mechanic) did an oil change he was confused as to why he couldnt get his rachet straight onto the sump plug as they do make it slightly tricky
