is it welded or just slotted in

No it's welded on mate. He's recommended 2.5 inch Audi style sleeve clamps for the exhaust.

looking good

Have gone for the o2a with a seat hydro/cable conversion on the box. Want to fit LSD in due course but it's ££££. How about you?

same seat cable converstion . using mk2 1.3 cable but as we using the rentless manifold the cable gunna get burned as manifold sticks up .so u will need to get a seat 2.0 16v abf clutch cable that will go around the front of the engine. i rung seat for the part but they dont do it . but pm me i  found some 1 who does

PM sent to you mate.

Looking good fella!

Here's a few pics of the KO4 and relentless manifold finally fitted. Massive thanks to JonP as I couldn't make it up to work on the car today. What a top bloke  8)

Anyway enough man love here's the pics…….













Comments welcome

Well all i have to say is that beast is going to howler once it put back in the car

looking good though

I think that manifold could have been designed better in places, access to the nuts on two of them is pretty much nonexistant. A small kink in the pipe work wouldn't have gone amiss to allow the nuts to mate up and turn more easily.
but its on and i'm not taking it off ever again!

try it when engine in the car 7 hrs just for them 2 nuts. i will never attempt 1 again

I would have killed Andy had he asked me to attempt that in the car. No questions asked, no second thoughts, then buried him in the veg patch.

You don't wanna see what I've got in my shed then for next week

I'll let you know when the engine makes it into the car but I'm not expecting much at all
