not herd anything bad against the V3 yet , just really good gains and less turbo lag

I fitted mine at the weekend & my advice would be take the head off. I did mine on a ramp & left the head on, what a nightmare! Use OEM gaskets and you'll need plenty of patience, some bolts you can hardly get a spanner so have a couple spare you can bend/modify to get on all the nuts. Also get a stud conversion kit from Sam Bryant that'll make mounting the mani to the turbo a lot easier.

It'll be interesting to see how the V3's go long term. The V2's with reinforced welds seem to be good so far.

Any benefits on power?
