no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

how do you find using your arm without an elbow carl?

but think of the weight lost

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

HA HA HA!!!!! Only messing, if you want weight loss on the strip you let me drive!!!

Back once again like a renegade master

i think you'll find Benros has modified the end of the cooler to point upwards.

there is space to fit the standard cooler and even the bigger 4x4 or even escort cossie cooler if you put your mind to it

Yes they chop the entire end off. then reweld it facing upwards.

right ok,
is that the sort of job my local welding workshop should be able to do?

i'm presuming the cozzy intercooler is made of alloy so aslong as where ya take does alloy welding all will be well

cheers guys.

got another question about an exhaust system.
ive got a maniflow system, do i have to make up custom mounts for it, nothing origonal lines up?

the maniflow back box is not up to the job for power outputs of over 120 bhp

trust me i have been there

the large bore playmini is

How come Steve is it restrictive or just no good?

what even the 2" turbo maniflow system?

TBH ... i had a single maniflow back box which i fitted

my son booted the car and a saw followin from the rear a large 4 foot circular swirl coming from the car .... it was choking the hell out of the motor to say the least
the power was crap!

so i had a large back box made up by maiflow 2" inlet 2.5" internal and 3" barryboy exit, the diffrence was emence to say the least

maniflow claim 125 bhp with out restiction .... over that... its true!

anyway i hope other peeps comment on this thread

but the 2" Play mini does work! .... single box only

would like to add that Turbo Daves exhaust note sound Superb!
and his motor produces the goods

the exhaust is the KEY! if you have built a superb motor
dont forget the intercooler of course!

its not the icing on the cake.................. ITS MORE CAKE!!

Oh no! I've got a single box Maniflow on mine!!

Any recommendations on a replacement!

sorry to hijack the thred, but it is relevant!

In the 13's at last!.. Just

i looked at the maniflow pipe from the down pipe to the back box. it was a bit crap. the bends were rather restrictive.
i would go with a Playmini, its a bit bling but it works

mines just a 2" pipe all the way to a cherry bomb at the back :)

i have a 1.75" maniflow single box system on my mini that the 998 turbo will go in,

& my mirage fanimold exzaust outlet is is 2" i was going to use a reducer pipe to link the two but may have a rethink

im going to use the maniflw exhust that i have as i got it cheap

then i want to make a custom one so its 2.5" from the turbo to the tail pipe. the only proplems i see is the gearlinkage and the pot joint, might have to make that section oval or somthing and put the gearlinkage inside the car.

bugger,

ok then so i need a new exhuast system,

what about the down pipe is that pants to?

so you recomend the playmini 2" system, not the 3" system.
does it have any brackets on it?
