What does everyone think of this manifold? Looking for one thats straight fit to a MK2 VTR, so raceland is out of the question. Not looking to spend too much if it can be avoided as well

It is a Sportex mate.
I quite like them, was looking into them a while back.
It is mild steel, so will become rusty after about 1 and a half - 2 years ish
Also it can be had for £149 PMSL :p

Glad i asked now! Cheers mate! I read somewhere on here that mild steel is better than stainless in some ways, mainly because of cracking
I knew it would be that manifold you linked to. I was going to make a thread a few days ago but thought someone else would make one instead.
Does it clear the oil filter on late mk2's then?

Something I would like to know as well! On the eBay listing it does say direct fit, but then again it is eBay. lol
Yeah, you buy one, then let me know ;)

Phoned up online autosport to check and they do a different manifold designed for the MK2. £200 including next day delivery, fits nicely and gives a good gain
