4 branch fitting 1.8 16v

Recommended Posts

Ive just got myself a 4 branch to replace my knackered downpipe on a g plate corrado...question is whats the best/easiest way to fit it? i know that just to do the normal downpipe i had to lower the subframe slightly but dont see this working with the 4 branch? could it possibly be done from the top of the engine after splitting the inlet manifold top part & removing? failing that its engine out & i just cant see that being the case surely?

 

any info/tips appreciated

 

cheers

with the inlet off, you should be able to guide it down from inside the engine bay, but you will need to get the original 1 off first

it is just possible to get a downpipe out from underneath (preferably on a garage ramp 6ft in the air) but depending on the all-in-one manifold and downpipe(4 branch) replacement you may have to drop the subframe a bit to get it in.
