    cant wait to see the figures gary

    ive got both but my 42mm is polished up and the 50mm is painted black like yours so i would rather the 42mm but if its that much of a diffrence ill have to use the 50mm manifold

    my spec is

    2.0 9a
    16v mk1 4 branch into a longlife stainless zaust
    k+n panel filter
    warm up reg mod
    42mm manifold
    made 164 bhp 150.5 lb/ft at stealth
    and im going to fit
    a mildly ported head and schrick cams wich ive just rebuilt
    hoping for some better figures [:D]

    Dan - I don't think it's going to be a massive difference TBH, but we'll see.

    Firstly, you've got to make it to the end of February without f*cking your car up again, before you even have the chance of carrying out these wild claims :lol:

    I've got f*ck all to worry about.

    Is this true!? GVK and his 9A are slower then you with the ABF?! I believe that you have almost the same mods to one and other, right?!
    From the videos, i've seen from the sites i manage to get from both you guys, it looks like GVK stays a litle in the back...
    Correct me if i'm wrong!

    Only one way to find out kid ;)

    Your car should've woopped mine on the way back from Germany that night as you had the right gearbox (which actually worked) but what happened... :lol:

    And it turned out I was 7-8bhp down with longer gearing bwahahahahhahaha:lol:
