G60 exhaust manifold

I have/ had a raceland 4 branch manifold on my g60 mated to a full magnex stainless system anyhoo it broke, is this normal? Also what other manifold will suit the g60 and the magnex system? Thanks

Yes and no.

Yes they do break, why because of engine torque.
They need a flexure between the end of the header assembly and the cat or out pipe to the resonator

The reason is that break is where the engine/manifold/down pipe was trying to shove the rest of the exhaust to the front and rear of the car when it rev'ed or backed off.

Cheers Brian I thought as much myself the car is stiff as hell with poly bushes and the exhaust isn’t. Something gotta give I suppose

Howdy folks, does anybody read German? Is this a fit for my car? I don’t want to spend anymore money than I have to as I’m going to sell the car soon

Tell google to translate it.  You will still need a better flexure.



This between the down pipe and the res.  The original scirocco dual down had it there, as the one on my tt tuning dual down is at the manifold flange.

Here is a mk3 g60 4-2 manifold and dual down, the flexure is at the top.  The Scirocco is at the bottom end. towards the res.

Thanks again Brian. I would have to cut the manifold back ,then add the flexure?

I have the manifold sorted but it doesn’t have the hole to screw the lambda in. What is the said part I need ? I can’t think what it’s called. Thanks

A bung.   You can get it to any good muffler shop they can weld it in in minutes for less than 40USD on the down pipe, just extend the o2 sensor wires,  the whites aren't polarized, just white to white and black to black.

 

Thanks Brian, I got this from a proper gent he sorted me out quick sharp so I wouldn’t slack  and get my hands dirty over the weekend

It looks identical to my old manifold which is a raceland manifold
