   why on earth do you need mark 1 oil filter and what ever why didnt they just manufacture the raceland to fit mk2's no problem , its a lot of fuss just for a manifold? can someone explain properly i have a x reg vtr phase 2

   Raceland cant help it if the decent saxo's were MK1..
   
   Nah..
   
   Guess its cheaper for raceland to just make one design..
   
   Use the search function matey, there have been tons of these oil filter relocation threads..

   Search lol
   
   Cheaper for them as james said matey gotta love the mk1 VTS
   And also easier, always more comapnies such as GMC, BTB and loads more who offer direct fitting onces i think

   the simple answer is the mk1 came first.
   
   I can imagine that if they were to retool to accommodate the psa revise then the cost would be higher.
   
   if you don't want any faffing then you get a supersprint. if you want a bargin that's almost as good then you get a Raceland.

    What else did they list matey?
    If the rest of your exhaust is fine and your happy with it then the oil filter will be all and then manifold just bolts on
    
    There's loads of guides around for ya

    Well you could always sale the Raceland and get a Supersprint Manifold instead cos ive been told they fit onto MK2's without oil filter relocation
    
    Oh mk2's Rule! lol
