   Was just lookin at ebay, at random stuff an being as im looking to get a manifold to go with my fulll Stainless steel system i glanced at this one.
   
   Its a sportex and claims to fit my 01 mark 2 VTR, I believe this is a 4-2-1 construction.
   
   Heres the direct link http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CITROEN-SAXO-2...item35aab4fe07
   
   SEARCH Number is: 230497254919 ( just incase link dies )
   
   Anyone used one of these?... I probably will still go with a raceland from kam, but i was just curious Cause i hear sportex are alright. Cheers.

   Have herd bad things about sportex manifolds, imo they are new to the manifold scene, but ive had no problems when i had a corsa with their systems.

   £148 delivered actually but still good price.
   i heard sportex were ok for these manifolds i enquired bout them myself. but i;d stick with the raceland as alot more people have them and havent had problems with them.

    No offence to kam but obviously if its cheaper there, and the same product as kam thats where im going to go,,,, How do i go about getting one at that price ? is it the stainless steel 4-2-1 for the mark 1, That requires the oil relocation kit to fit to a mark 2 ?
