Following on from a post a couple of weeks ago about trying to get rid of the annoying Tizz from my flexi pipe I've decided to bite the bullet and get a nice new manifold and flexi-pipe.

Question is, which one?

I already have a Larini Club Sport back box and am chuffed to bits with it so was naturally thinking of going for their manifold. Does anyone have one? Any comments?
Or any other suggestions?

Cheers

P.S.
Sorry for those of you who've already seen this on SELOC.

No experience of any of them but all I would say is that you'll need to get one with some sort of flexible joint in unless you have a flexi cat replacement. From memory the Eliseparts one as a flexible joint.

the drone from mine drives me mad, I'd not recommend fitting a 421 to be honest unless you have heard one!

At least i think its the 421 and not hte exhaust annoying me!

Mines already pretty beefy in sound - personally I like it.
Thanks for the heads up though.

I have the Larini 4-2-1 manifold and club sport back box on my S1 111S, the exhaust sounds great and when I have the car back on the road I want to de-cat it for the pops and bangs!

However, after spending a day trying to fit it I found out the holes for the studs where slightly out. This meant it had to be modified to get it to fit, which considering what I paid for it, I thought wasn't very good.

I would still recommend it though as it sounds fantastic plus its stainless so theoretically it should last a life time! thumbup
