Hi guys,

I recently got my REMUS fitted, and now looking for a stainless 4-2-1 manifold. But which is the best? I'm thinking the best build qualiy, and best fitment. I assume their won't be much difference in the bhp increase between them, if their will be any increase. But I certainly hope so

Have been looking at this one on eBay, looks nice, and has a fine price too.

But what do you guys say?

I also seem to have heard from some that there might be some issues with a 4-2-1 and lowering, and mine's been lowered 60mm in the front (might just be 50mm, but kit said 60mm).

So what's your experience guys?

And happy new year corsasport

That stainless one looks alright, most people have trouble with the 4-1 manifolds. That one should be fine.

I had mild steel one my old Sport, which was fine but I only lowered it 30mm.

I've got that manifold on my x16 Its a raceland one

The only problem I had was that the manifold made the cat sit very low to floor. So I got a decat fitted and its fine now

Well the Janspeed isn't stainless is it? As I can only find their manifold in mild steel...

And do Raceland make quality parts, i.e. 4-2-1 exhaust manifolds

Hmm... Well hope I can keep my cat, otherwise I'll go the same route with a decat, gonna free up some bhp is always great
