Due to my cam belt snappage I am having to sell some bits to fund the repair.
I bought my supersprint from bass direct on this forum last year for £165 but to be honest it was a bit of a mess. The manifold was fine but the downpipe flexi joint was welded solid and caused untold problems when I had it fitted. It was also covered in exhaust paste. Sorry Bass but its true! I then had it modified by Zex exhausts in Cardiff who put in a nice bit of flexi pipe and cleaned the whole thing up a bit. The origional flexi joint is a known problem on these anyway and have also been known to squeak so I feel that my custom version is superior. The only problem is that there is no space to put the cat back in now for the m.o.t. and it was my intention to get it modified again to allow this or I was just going to stick my valver manifold and cat back on again for this. It cost me £90 to sort out the flexi joint so this manifold cost me £255 altogether.
The manifold works really well and gives a good increase in top end power without sacrificing low down torque and also sounds ace.
I will let it go for £175
I am based in west london and I will have it available when I receive payment i.e. take it off the car!
I could post but I would have to research cost.
Cheers.
