   You'll find people will start wanting daft prices for second hand raceland mani's as you can't get them anymore. Cheapest stainless would be an eBay special. Failing that probs a sported but I heard they fit awful.

   I would say Janspeed or a eBay special called Melitek (I think)... They are £180 and apparently stainless steel.
   
   Not sure about the fitment or quality or gains.
   
   Super sprint all the way.

    yes, milltek are gash, thats why we see brand new cars coming straight from the manufacturers going in there for systems and manifolds to be designed. Sorry but logic dictates here, they've been around for years and most of their systems are more expensive and of better quality then most cars on here.

    you can buy my raceland 4-1 for £245.
    
    they are very rare now, no more being made and people hardly sell them.
    
    grab a bargain before the prices shoot up.

    As said just look for a secondhand one, can be picked up for less than £150.
    Lol @ the joker trying to flog one for £245, didn't even cost that much brand new.

    Hard to pick up on over text on forums, and the amount of idiots that post on here makes it difficult to determine if it's a silly idiot or someone having a laugh
