   it depneds what you want mate.
   a 4-1 manifold will give you a better gain higher up the rev range
   a 4-2-1 manifold will give you a better gain lower down the rev range
   
   raceland is a good buy as they have an offer on at the minute with Kam Racing, GMC do manifolds that are £270 and that is a decent piece of kit
   
   you will see an even better gain with a stainless steel back box, centre section and middle section. also a good enclosed air filter such as a BMC and Green Enclosed
   im sure someone with alot more know ledge than me will expand on this

   I have a magnex with straight through centre, still have cat on and Green filter located by battery and headlight so i think a manifold will finish it nicely.
   
   Thinking about a 4-2-1 atm, any one know if the raceland one from kam-racing will fit, I asked Graeme but he's not to sure.

   the 1.4's are the same as the vtr's i think you would need a mk1 vtr performance manifold

   If you got the ash to splash go for either a supersprint, devil or miltek. Those 3 cost more than average but are excellent pieces of kit. Have a miltek on mine can nto fault it
