burbleboy Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Hi,I had an mb6 vti years ago and I remember that my 4-1 manifold sounded like a subaru and was quite a surprise!Do any of you know what make that would have been? I have looked on ebay but there are that many 4-1 manifolds to choose from!Just wanted to know the price as someone in my work may buy my 4-2-1 manifold off me!

burbleboy Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Aaaah! Good info!I bought one years ago on fleabay and won it in auction for around £110 at the time. But i didnt read up on manifolds or seek out what was best 4-1 or 4-2-1, just luck that it sounded awesome. Just later in life i make wrong decisions based on experience;I chose 4-2-1 manifold this time because i had to get 4 branches, near middle, welded to stop them vibrating against each other. This put me off buying 4-1 again so bought 4-2-1 manifold in February but unfortunately doesnt have the scooby noise! Typical! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burbleboy Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 This what i'm looking for;http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Japspeed-Hond ... 3f1a8ccc3c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 That's the one, pretty sure you can get it cheaper though, less than £100.4-1 for more power and scooby burble at low revs, 4-2-1 for more mid range torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
