suziki bandit manifold for my saxo??

[marc_safc]

alrite every1 im getting a sizuki bandit manifold for my saxo vtr obviously its gettin made 2 fit just wondering what do i do with the sensor on the top of the manifold???? i know that ive got 2 put the bottom 1 in a sleeve as my cat is under my manifold

[Dan]

A suzuki bandit manifold? Why not get a saxo one?

A suzuki bandit manifold? Why not get a saxo one?

cos i can get a suzuki bandit manifold for 45 quid stainless steel and i know some1 that will make it fit my car a bit work involved and ive heard that with most manifolds for my saxo ive got 2 relocate the oil filter and sensor and hes going to make it so it clears the oil filter

[SNewham]

sounds bodge to be honest. If it isn't done properly it could end up restricting the air flow...

[marc_safc]

it`l be done properly mate thats what he does builds motorbikes from nothing i`l try and get sum pictures of his work sometime its quality..... it`l just be like a custom made 1 but for cheaper.... can any1 please tell me what 2 do with the sensor on the top of the manifold then?

[fredjudd]

It well worth just spending the money on a saxo one.

You will probably have to change so much on it you might aswell make it from scratch.

[marc_safc]

u wont have 2 change much uve already got your 4 pipes cut them loose from each other bend them away from oil filter hes explained everything... so can sum1 tell me wot to do with the sensor.... and what manifold can i get that wont touch my oil filter

[oadamo]

you can buy weld in bosses for the sensor just relocate it in to the side of the collector at the bottom of the manifold.

A bandit manifold has been designed for a bandit… there’s a lot of engineering that goes into designing a manifold, loads of calculations and computer models things like the stroke of the piston and capacity will all make a difference…the exact point at which the pipes join is crucial to gaining or losing power… you could actually end up losing power! Just get a VTR one!

[KamRacing]

I would recommend a before and after dyno test. You may find that performance is worse than before as the manifold isn't designed to operate within the parameters of the VTR engine.

If you gain power it'd be interesting to know where

interested to see the results, can get manifold for £45 then workmanship price is?

[rushy_23]

Another saxp first! :flamed:

Let us know how it goes.

[PRICEY-VTS]

strange but a think a would just save my money and pay 300 for supersprint as there are recommended for a saxo and gives good gains plus a know that they will be a lot of work involed to make it fit even then after paying to get it fitted and making it fit you will probs lose hp but thats me

good look bud

You can either get a lamda sleave from GMC or you can get you're mechanic to drill a hole and fit a boss so the lambda just screws back in.

The bike manifold will be a cool mod, it wont take much modification tbh I can only see the pipes needing a new plate machining and welding to them as avoiding the oil filter will be the easy part. Aslong as each pipe doesnt get cut to diff lengths i think it should free up a couple of BHP.

[R66CE_O_vtr]

i used to have a piper manifold for my vtr and that didnt need to be modified to miss the oil filter. and i jus left the lambda sensor of n took the bulb out of the engine management light

[Essay]

as said mate get the weld in boss, pics of it fitted will be intresting, get it dyno'd too mate, but personally i would either get a custom one made from scratch or buy a supersprint one

[prauguste]

S2 steel wheels still for sale?

[KamRacing]

there are two issues you may need to overcome. The bore of the manifold is likely to be smaller. Also the primary and secondary lengths are tuned for an engine that revs to 12k rpm so will not be correct for your car..

[Baz]

sounds proper cowboy job to me. surely easier to just get a mani that will fit straight on

[SeanVTR]

gmc do a 4-1 manifold that doesnt need the oil filter relocating

[Gabbastard]

thats going to be fucking awful.
