#1: Fitting 4-1 race manifold (engine management ) Author: Project2062014, Location: CornwallPosted: Mon Apr 07, 2014 10:25 pm ---- hi. Whats the situation with .fitting a 4-1 with one sensor fitment .then fitting a de-cat pipe with one sensor fitment as well . no flex joint ? Is it possible to reset? the engine management if the light comes on remapping the car ? I am wanting to install a race manifold off fleabay & do not want any M.O.T issues or engine . maybe make two pipes ? with cat no cat ? get the cat welded in ? can anyone please help me ? Cheers B

Im going to get a flexi joint and keep the cat !! cut n weld !! done! with sensors and good 4 M.O.T .

#8: Re: Fitting 4-1 race manifold (engine management ) Author: 206gt160, Location: BlackburnPosted: Sat Apr 12, 2014 7:52 am ---- I dont have a flexi with my 180 manifold and decat.

#10: Re: Fitting 4-1 race manifold (engine management ) Author: Project2062014, Location: CornwallPosted: Sun Apr 13, 2014 3:34 am ---- flexi is needed .will last a few years .. 2 1/2inch flexi over the cat pipe im going .. 4-1 manifold long pipes on it for better flow . as for the sensor angle adjusted .grind the socket down where it sits until the gasses flow across the sensor. simpols ..
#11: Re: Fitting 4-1 race manifold (engine management ) Author: usher, Location: northallertonPosted: Sun Apr 13, 2014 1:11 pm ---- whats the issue with the sensor as mine went in with no mods etc and has worked fine ever since

What size flexi did you use ? I've got 2 1/2 inch and a 61mm pipe to weld up , do you have the cat on ? Going to Cut cat pipe down flexi should fit over the pipe , weld up then 61mm pipe to the manifold pipe,that slots inside. The one holds the gasket , ,got new studs and bolts for manifold just incase ! On it 2mz ,, ! Whoop whoop ! No problem as of yet , just checking with ppl that have done it successfully so I know of any issues ,cheers B ,

Took me 9 hrs straight ! Back box is blowing & the new water pump is leaking from sum where so all back off to find the leak tomorrow , FFs , all running fine , drinking the juice was ok after remap , new throttle body & cambelt & it's defo drinking . Any info on the water pump leaking would be great , down side to the manifold is I've lost most of my backfire power , it's not poping and banging any more , did until 5 miles down road , it has stopped ,was a sharp crisp gun shot a couple every down shift !

#15: Re: Fitting 4-1 race manifold (engine management ) Author: Project2062014, Location: CornwallPosted: Fri Apr 18, 2014 1:58 pm ---- Got a two bolt flange on . Is tight not much play . Car vibrates a lot ,, does pop n bang a little just not as it was .
