With some luck the manifold will be trial fitted over the next few days as we've just found a head to bolt it up too. Thanks to all the people that PM'd me regarding the trial fitment. As soon as the fitment to the head is confirmed the group buy will start. Greg

We've got 50 of the stainless manifolds on order. Once they've been completed we'll start the group buy. I don't want any delays like what happened with the intercooler kit pre buy Greg Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

i got one of the low mount stainless 'monza' ones off ebay, looks and works great. i didnt want to attract too much attention to my modifications, so i opted for the low mount

Buyer beware!! Greg

no problems with mine as yet.. wish i could say the same for my head.. for the price of them, it doesn't really matter if they do crack after a while. you could replace a few and it would still work out cheap. i don't know about the ones gktech is getting, but mine only came with a 35mm wastegate pipe, so if you're planning on running a bigger gate than that, keep in mind it will need to be modified to suit.
