hmm i've been thinking the same actually, seems quicker a lot lower down. Not 100% sure if it's any better than the Willy one 90+ although it's prolly just in my imagination

fuk me...that mean u back on the road now?? lol



but seeing as tho the design of the williams fanimold over the valver 1 was to gain mid range, top end power/torque.........kinda shud be expected i reckon

Yep will be interesting to see the difference it makes 1/4 miling I reckon, always got the Willy one to revert back too if need be 8)

Think I'll probably stick with the Willy one then. Not overly concerned if it loses some low-mid range power. I always keep it on the boil above 5000rpm anyway.

yeah probs best stickin to the willy if u do that mate.

must admit iv never been entirely convinced that theres much gain or loss tbh, but then iv never tried both of em so cant really comment. the cars iv raced with the valver manifolds on tho have all lost, bar mehdis, well craigs, if they running same spec as me

He did have one on but according to Jesus the Valver one was better, although might be best checking wit Mehdi or Jesus about that

I've changed my mind about the manifold now, had a blast with an ITR new shape and wa suitably impressed with the results, especially 60+mph

I've got a R19 16v Manifold and Clio 16v downpipe, think the manifold is the same as the Clio one, only it seems to be painted black.

Feels better lower down, than the Willy one

0-60 mine is stupidly quick. but anything high speed you can feel some sort of restriction....as if the manifold is holding the speed back.

its always a good feeling when the back fire on tap is there... which i can gladly say.. it is. lol

Is it not down to the 1.8 head :?:

I found my valver manifold better than my super sprint

My supersprint makes it more cammy like a 1.8 ......(well a little bit lol).
The valver manifold pulled the same from 1k - 6.5k....smooth power banned
