#1: XSi Manifold Questions.. Author: Cr4zYb0y, Location: SalisburyPosted: Sun Dec 12, 2010 7:36 am ---- Right next mod on the car is going to be a stainless steel manifold, currently have a Janspeed stainless steel cat back exhaust..
Few questions.
1. Where is the best place to get it.?
2. Is it worth getting it heat-wrapped, or can i get away without it.?
3. Is it going too make much difference (noise wise) Don't fancy it too noisey motorway driving.
4. Is it just a straight swap, or will i need any additional parts to fit..?
Any Help is much appreciated, time to buy myself a xmas present

it is all up to you whether you want heat wrap or not
there will be a bit more noise
in theory they should be bolt on

I didnt heat wrap mine, i preferred the shiney look of the engine bay to the minimal increase in wrapping it. But thats just my taste

I'd prefer the stainless look aswell..! Is the 1.4 16v use the same manifold as the XSi..?
#6: Re: XSi Manifold Questions.. Author: Howey, Location: Kings LynnPosted: Sun Dec 12, 2010 10:00 am ---- Yeah should be the same mate, might be worth checking though because doesnt the 1.4 have vvt??
#7: Re: XSi Manifold Questions.. Author: Cr4zYb0y, Location: SalisburyPosted: Sun Dec 12, 2010 10:14 am ---- I wouldn't have a clue mate. I would have just brought one made for the 1.6 16v XSi and imagined it would be a straight swap with no problems..
