   Hi,
   
   I'm in need of a new manifold and from citroen, they want £125 for just the down pipe! So i was thinking of a Raceland. But I understand, to fit this to a mk2, I will need to change the oil filter to a mk1 filter!
   
   Does anyone know what the citroen part numbers are?
   
   Rep'd for help

   Think it also depends where your cat is, ie In the downpipe or under the car.

   He has a Mk2 VTR W-reg, so must mean the cat is in the downpipe.
   
   From a searching sax-p....:
   
   Part Numbers
   The Oil Filter Insert - 1103A7 @ £2.07 excl VAT
   The MK1 Oil Filter - 1109N3 @ £2.95 excl VAT
   Big Bolt for attaching manifold to gearbox - 210314 @ £1.87 excl VAT
   
   ......thats what Ive found. Theres a whole guide on how to fit one.

   Depends on wether its a 90bhp or a 98bhp that determines the locaton of the cat and hence wether the oil filter needs re-locating.

   ive just got all of thr stuff today for fitting it as im fitting my raceland tomorrow... also when you tap and plug the oil return hole i had a m10 bolt and the bolt head was too big so i hack sawed it off and hacksawed a little groove on the top so that i can use it as a screw head... but how do i stop the screw/bolt from going all of the way in??? just tap the hole half way or something???? cheers

   if its W reg then the CAT is most likley under the car and not in the manifold as they made the early mk2 vtr's with the 90 bhp engine!
   
   best was to check is how many ecu plugs has your car got??
