once fitted is there any chance of you doing an mot emissions test to see how it performs?
does look good for the price does that - just how it copes with lots of cold/hot starts only time will tell
such a shame the 197 manifold is a pig to change!
also iirc the configuration of the manifold is diffferent to the standard one isnt it? (1 & 4 - 2 & 3 paired) - nope its the same just checked!!!!
even if its not as "good" as the standard manifold it should still give improvements as the small cat restriction isnt there!!
