Morning all!

My exhaust manifold on my S2 has decided to resemble a kitchen colander! I've fire gummed it up, but the inevitable is near.....

I've seen on ACT and Racetech they sell them, and for around £500'ish. Just wondered if anyone else has bought one a lot cheaper recently and where from?

Also apart from longevity is there any other difference between a mild steel and stainless steel manifold?

Thanks very much

I have a complete S3C set up which would fit. Mild steel manifolds which have been ceramic coated. 2 pairs of stainless decat pipes - one ceramic coated one not. 2 pairs of stainless hockey sticks. You may need to modify the pipes at the silencer box. You may need to swap the metal coolant pipe too - I have a couple of those too. One stainless and one alloy (well it doesn't act like mild steel) ceramic coated.

PM me if you're interested. Less than £500 and you won't need to wait a month.

A very reasonable price but of course the two port S1 manifolds are a far simpler design than the three port manifolds on the later cars scratchchin
