Moe Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 looks like the ebay manifolds. have a search on the ITR forum about these, they all got bad reviews. im in the process of either getting a 98 spec JDM 4-1 manifold or another 4-1 manifold from a reputable company e.g. toda. spoon, mugen etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

civicturbo79 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 i have just these manifolds off ebay 3 times now and never had a problem .its only the cheap turbo manifolds off ebay that split due to the weight of the turbo . http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Honda-Civic-B-Ser ... 7C294%3A50the only thing with these is the flang that joins the cat is 180 degress out for the mb6 . so you eather have to cut the end off the cat and turn it 180 degress and re-weld or make a de-cat pipe with its flang to match the manifold . the first mb6 in my project m post has had his on for 6 months now and had no problems with it .

Dave Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Think the warranty may be invalidated once the flange is cut off and rewelded to suit tho mate. Still, for the money i suppose it's deff worth a go! Let us know how you get on with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slosei Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 got the manifold on this evening but it turned out to be around an inch too short on the flange and didnt have a welder so hopefully it should be sorted tommorrow eveningiv painted it so will have pictures up later too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slosei Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 welll it dont get much better for me,got the de cat extended and it sounds as it its blowing from the manifold gasket!! but cant find where its blowing from,i took it off the head to check the gasket to see if i could spot it blowing and it seems to have a tight seal. then i snapped a bolt in the head , the back box now rattles and inside the car it dont sound good at all. the exhaust note has changed got my mate to drive my car and from out side the car it sounds nice seems a tiny bit better on top endonce iv got rid of the extra noises will get a video up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
