and also got a raceland 4-2-1 but dont know if i can be botherd with moving the filter ect so i think im going to look for a different one meby piper 4-1

so hopfully picture updates this weekend if not next weekend

[CitroenSport]

Purchased a Piper 4-1 manifold off tjbaker on here and fitted it last nite along with the super sprint center section and what a difference!

Much more pull from around 3-4k revs and the noise is crazy haha really over the moon with it and it pops like a bitch haha

just need:

lambda sleeve
ge quickshift
upper strut brace
raceland enclosed induction

will post pics tomorrow or Sunday.

[mosh]

coool.. heard the 4-1 manifolds are alot louder then the 4-2-1 mani's you reckon its true?

[CitroenSport]

Not sure mate as I haven't had a 4-2-1 on my car but mine is really loud in a good way haha and like I said eariler can feel alot more pull after 3/4k revs and really frees the revs up.

Pics on later or tomorrow

[Aly]

Piper 4-1 is amazing for 8v's when I put one on mine the difference was amazing.
Car looks mint mate.

[tay56]

Sounds like your making good progress with this, put a video up of how loud the 4-1 is with a straight thru system!

[CitroenSport]

Cheers lads well something has went terribly wrong as there was a loud ping last nite and then all of a sudden the car started making an unreal amount of noise comming from underneath the engine bay, not sure what it is but it sounds like the center section has separated from the manifold , but going to have a look now and will update later on with pics and a video

[CitroenSport]

well sorted the problem, the blank in the center section blew out but i found it somehow haha and fitted it back. the a day later driving down the coast road and the blue lambda sensor blew out so blanked it with an old lambda sensor until i can get a one.

then when to start car on thursday night and the battery was flat lol so got a new good battery and its spot on now lol i will get there eventually!

snow pics and videos of exsaust system and a bit of drifting lol on tonight

where abouts in newcastle u from?

[Pearson]

Ahaaa love the video, sounds exactly like mine, was popping and rasping like a bitch today and i dunno why, my theory is that the gases in the pipe are alot hotter than the temperature outside, was only knicking it at 1500/2000 revs and was rassping like a bitch haha.
