Tubular exhaust manifold anyone?

[Cupraken]

TSR spoke to me today about borrowing my car for a week to fabricate a tubular exhaust manifold. The idea is to then get Milltek to produce it for them under licence. Anyone interested? The plan is to make it so it fits under people's CAI systems so you don't have to relocate the expensive intake you've just shelled out £300+ for! It's a piece of the horsepower puzzle that's been missing up till now, should make a fair difference for those on stage 2+ and wondering what to spend on next!

how much difference do they actually think it would make, considering it would be expensive,

I don't think that TSR have looked at a manifold on the car for them to make a statement like that

Which bit of the hotside turbine will they make in tubular?

 

[DanGB]

oh yes good point

 

[Cupraken]

Ah, that's why the turbos are so expensive then!

Obviously experts in 2.0TFSi tuning

Got excited then, before I thought

 

[DanGB]

an excuse to spend more cash on the car mike?

 

[Cupraken]

Must admit they're not! Very helpful tho, even if I always have to provide Revo settings for them! maybe they'll be good one day, till then I'd better not leave my car with them, who knows what I'll end up with!!!
Having said that, a nice bunch of enthusiastic guys

That makes up for technical ability, knowledge & skills in my books

Shame it's not April 1st or I could make a joke of it! Just my inexperience in these matters, took what they said at face value..... Sorry to get your hopes up guys

You'd have to get a stand-alone turbo for this to work, I'll give them a slap when I see them! Could be done, just cost an arm & leg.......
