Cruise Power tubular Exhaust manifold

[stevepudney]

Has anyone on here (or anyone you know) ever parted with the substantial amount of cash needed to buy one of these beauties. If so are there any other pictures or info floating about.

Has anyone on here got any contacts in Japan that could contact Cruise Power to see if they still make them, as they don't appear to be listed on there website.

Have you tried Checkerflag as they list this manifold.

thats an awesome piece of kit
not sure it would fit in me engine bay though :lol:

Supposed to be a straight swap for the standard manifold.

from the angle in the picture that manifold looks a lot bigger and wider then the original, it would probably fit with some gentle persuation :lol:

Supposed to be a straight swap for the standard manifold.

From the pic it looks like the turbo would sit in pretty much the same place as the standard turbo as the angle and position of the flange looks correct, although i reckon it would move the turbo at least a couple inches downwards on the engine though

How much of a performance advantage would it be to change the standard manifold over to this one?

Is it worth it?

That would depend on "the package" you have already, if you run 1 bar on standard ECU & turbo e.t.c. then probably not much but if you run near to the max air flow that the standard manifold can handle you will see improved breathing in the higher rev band, the engine would rev freely and so release a few more torque's & horse's

It all depends on the set up

Yeah at the moment, its no where near that stage, but something to keep in mind later on!

I will inform you guys on the answer i get from them...

I wouldn't order from them until you know that they are still in Business...

Still don't think Justin has received the £2k worth of parts he or his mate ordered... And this was months and months ago...

Yeah, I know, thats why I haven't bothered contacting them myself.

If Cruise Power make them, someone must be selling them ??
