Gti6 Manifold

[markw 1]

as said what is the most power a standard manifold can cope with before it becomes restrictive.

N/A you are reaching the limit of its capabilities at 230BHP.........

 

Supercharging dosent seem to be strangled by the manifold.

Yeah?

 

Did you change yours?

erm inlet or exhaust?

[GTI6BOY 29]

Oopps

 

I talking exhaust...lol

[maxi 36 1 Cars]

Yeah talking exhaust manifold. Im just about tits out on my modified manifold at 231BHP. If you can get hold of a maniflow touring car item , go for it! The primaries are too smaller bore for much over the power stated above, so I was told by several seperate tuners!

Would you upgrade from a 2 1/4 exhaust to 2 1/2 or not?

you need to get it matched to the cams, of course if you do have a touring car engine, then you can use the touring car manifold, I'd leave the specifying of the system to longmans if you're already getting a manifold, he'll know surely what diameter to go for (bear in mind it will be loud....)

[GTI6BOY 29]

James lumleys aint that loud?

 

Besides it cant be much louder that mine at pugfest 08

The Longmans BTCC Production 306's used standard inlet manifolds and were 250bhp iirc...?
