   Hi guys
   
   Ive got a 03 VTR and im looking at getting a decent manifold for it.
   Just wondering which one is the best one to get, ive heard that Janspeed or Raceland are a couple of decent ones...
   
   However why cant i buy a Janspeed one that'll fit my car without having to buy one with a sports cat? e.g. on KamRacing there is one but there is a sports cat bundled in, whys that?
   
   Looking to pay around the £170 mark
   
   Cheers

   Supersprint if you can afford it.
   
   Second hand raceland/Janspeed if not.

   I personally refuse to believe there is much difference between them to justify a price difference.

   The toyo sports ones are made from shite stainless. I have welded a few up now as they cracked. Its like anything else the more you pay the thicker and better quality steel you get.

    I bought this one as well two months ago and its good.. nice note of exhaust and you can feel a small difference in power going through the gears

    ive got a 4-2-1 manifold for sale. £70 posted.
    mild steel, slight surface rust but all welds solid and no big dents or scratches.
    
    waste of money buying new in my opinion unless its for show or forum scene points.
    
    PM me if interested!
