design and fitment were the reasons I went for UK made one. yea I know its more but its in the UK and the guy made it for the car with several visits etc.. Full-Race design wont work on seat ibiza and rhd DP, so had to make our own design.
Mine below: Full Race: Full race one is nice, but its design is such the DP wont fit on a rhd car, let alone a seat ibiza.
ah, makes sense. I am thinking about it for a longitudinal fitment so hadn't considered that. Think yours has a way better flange (head side) than the FR one. especially considering the money!
I drew up the flanges and had em laser profiled.. got spares if you want one. IHI flange & outlet flange and heas flange
Grant Motor Sport Is One To Avoid HELLO BADGER 5 IM SORRY TO HERE ABOUT YOUR EXPERINECES WITH GRANT MOTORSPORT I TO HAVE HAD AN ABSOLOUTE NIGHTMARE SAGA WITH THIS MAN PLEASE HAVE A LOOK AT WEBSITE grantmotorsport.blogspot.com TO HAVE A LOOK AT HOW BAD IT HAS BEEN FOR ME TO EVERY ONE ELSE AFTER YOU HAVE READ MINE AND BADGER5'S STORYS YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN JUDGEMENT
Oh and use paragraphs man!!! It really has just hurt my eyes from straining to read that SLAB of text. EDIT/ Its a worrying read though tbh... Trackdaying a customers car and also lending out customers cars?????!!??? I wonder what a few others have to say about it on here.
but the badger5 manifold is still nice and sexy... wish it was less but the quality comes @ a price when made by an F1 exhaust manufacturer. Visited their premesis last wekk and geez they can make some stuff! Seriously impressive skills and kit.
where's the fun in that!? Bill, you finished or are you waiting for bigger injectors or something else? What is it running at now?
its been running fine since oct 2006 on this mani. changed turbo once since to a larger one, which is pushing a lot more airflow than previous. on the 49lb comp wheel on the previous smaller turbo it made 517bhp/378lbft New turbo has a 60lb comp wheel and larger exhaust housing. Both turbo's are run at 32-35psi boost. No idea of current power on current turbo. not been on dyno. planning another manifold for GT35 turbo and external wastegate. maybe inconel.... maybe lottery numbers req'd tho - DOH!
nice, must be over 550 then! what top end changes did you make (heard you have different valve train)?
i run supertech valves and springs (inc Ti retainers) - stock size tho. cams are specials from catcams, and cyl head is largeport (ported), breathing thru an 007 monster-turbo inlet manifold through an R32 75mm throttle body.
