Im looking to buy this manifold off a fella on here - http://www.kamracing.co.uk/index.php/citroen/citroen-saxo/saxo-exhaust/exhaust-manifold/janspeed-4-2-1-exhaust-manifold-sports-cat-saxo-vtr-00-03.html
I have a 2001 Vtr with the cat in the manifold and a silencer just after that, and a sportex exhaust,
If i get the supersprint race tube will all these be compatible with each other ?

as long as the sportex backbox will fit onto a standard centre pipe then its all good.
We have the supersprint race pipes always in stock.

right, i should have the mani in the first post on its way soon, im also looking to get a milltek decat pipe and middle section,
will these fit together along with the sportex exhaust? and have i got everything right?
will i need anything else to fit these, gaskets, seals etc?

I dont sell milltek or sportex to be able to advise on their fitment together. Best to ask who you are buying from

As long as you stick with brands that follow the standard fittings then you should be fine. Some companies use sleeve joints or non standard lengths though so double check before you buy...

from what i've read the sportex parts are oem fit so can be used with standard part as with the supersprint so yes it sould all work fine mate

just a quick question, is it just the gasket manifold ill need or is does anything else need replaced?
will i be able to use the standard bolts from the mani for my aftermarket one?

haha, i was hoping it would be an easy fit as ive never removed or replaced a manifold before, might leave it up to the garage to do,
so the setup is as follows
Janspeed mani with sports cat, to milltek de-cat pipe (which will replace my silencer), to milltek middle pipe, to sportex backbox
is that correct?

sportex gaskets for aftermarket stuff dont fit with standard stuff.

yea garage i took it too had real pain fitting it. then i read thro the threads bout it all say the same proper pain to fit.
and for some reason the supersprint end that goes to the mani was too long to needed cutting down to fit

i dont have the tools to be cutting anything down, or the money for the garage to do it, i was hoping to do it myself ideally,
im still unsure what ill need and if everything will fit correctly, its a bit confusing.
