OK,

I've been to see the company who will be making the IS200 performance manifold for Prolex-UK. I'm hoping for the first one to be ready in 3/4 weeks.

It will be made to suit N/A and S/c'd cars I'll be getting the test car Dyno'd so you can see what gains you will get from this mod (standard car) .

I'll be getting a batch of 10 made up so please express interest below. I will be taking firm orders when the dyno run has been done and pictures have been made available.

Not sure on price yet will depend on the numbers and finish.

I'd love to give a figure smile.gif

I'm hoping for sub £500.

What I'll do is get a price for 10 then 15 then 20 and see what everyone says...coz the more he does the cheaper they will be.

Hoping to release at least 10 gee gees from a N/A car msn-wink.gif

There you go...

Now I have a rough Idea... It was cheaper then I'd expected mate, as I have seen the tuned stuff for 3 times that ..

Is this tuned in any way Dave?
ProLex-UK

Will this cause over heating problems under the hood as I saw in Kierans car? Will the standard exhaust guard be used still to keep the heat off the SC?

Nope...........will come heat wrapped as is or ceramic coated

Dave, guessing this manifold replaces the bits that have the pre-cats in so effectively we'd be getting a decat as well as a performance manifold in one go?

What sort of increase would you assume on a car with forced induction?

If so count me in please smile.gif
