Probs with 4-2-1 SS Exhaust Manifolds :'(

[Brando 0]

My car went into Autotechnics and they have been trying to get me an exhuast manifold for my 2l 9a. But have had no luck! Miltek and Supersprint told them they wouldn't fit and don't actually make 4-2-1 ss manifolds for right hand drive cars.

 

So Autotechnics want to do some research before they get one and fit it. They've asked me to ask anyone that has fitted the miltek manifold if they have any hints or tips????

 

:) sozs to be a noob?? Any suggestions/Comments??

 

I understood it was a tight fit but was definatly dooable?? Autotechnics are worried about the orientation of it being wrong to the degree a hot manifold is near components that could melt!?! Or that it won't fit and will knock and cause me problems!

 

I know this has kind of been done to death and I feel guilty for asking it. When i get it sorted perhaps we could have a sticky and I'll get some pics and a guide together of the install!

They won't fit a TSR manifold, they had to send the last two back. Ideally I want more mid range too so 4-2-1 it has to be plus it's a 9a :'( not the KR

9a and kr engines are the same height and dimensions so it would fit,not sure on mating to the cat tho

Sorry dude, I didn't realise that, I thought the 9a was tall block and thus different to the KR. I really don't know much tho :). Trying to learn more :)
