Hi Peeps...Well a little while ago i purchased a pair of stainless steel V6 mainifolds from ACT..

First set:



I was slightly un-impressed by the overall quality and shared my points with Tim..The parts come directly from the manufacturer so he was unaware of the finish, I shared some pictures with him but said i will suffer them.
I was a little concerned due to the siamesed exhaust ports having sufficient flow created by the extra pressure from the supercharger.

A few days ago i received an email from Tim saying that he is sending me a new pair..FOC..And to return the old ones..To his word they arrived yesterday and i must say a vast improvement, Tim of ACT is a very nice chap and its always a pleasure doing business with him..10/10
Second set:


...Cheers..Ziga

Ziga.. I have had the same issues with my Cerbera manifolds! Mine also rattle on the gearbox. Not had the chance to speak to him about them yet though..

Marks are from having to file the pipe flush with the flange!

Mark. For Delilah, these second set of manifolds you have received must seem like diamond earrings. Naturally, at this stage of her life she deserves the best.

Hi Mate..Please do tell him as he needs to know, As said he doesnt always see the finished product so he is unable to rectify any inconsistency.
He did say to me that he needs the feedback from customers as it helps keep his suppliers in check..He is a very easy person to talk to and values his customers..Ziga

TONY:

Thanks for that mate, Though i think i might have spoilt delilah just a little too much, She now wants some electrocution lesson..(Elocution lessons are for humans)..And will sound a lot more refined as of next week..Mind you the other day a small child was walking passed with her mum and she said.."Thats a posh car"..Which made me chuckle..Although i think its gone to delilahs heads...smile

Just got off the phone to him.. As always a top chap to deal with and concerned about the quality of his product. All in hand. Issues happen, it's how you deal with them that defines it/you.

Cheers again Tim! (If you read this..)
