ive had it about 4-5months now, since i bought the williams engine. havnt fitted it, cus its deeper than the 16v manifold, so i thought it wudnt fit. but it sits lower down, and theres tons of room. downpipe fits alrite as well, jsut gota extend the decat pipe.

What did I say wouldn't fit the 19?

Was it not the downpipe cos it has the big kink?

The meganes is nicer, looks like the spiders the meganes.

Need to try and steal Simons.

Jimbo put your MAP sensor on properly.

aye probably.

Hes in the transit all the time though so maybe...

The 1.8 cast effort is cack, its better than a lot of other cast manifolds but it really is cack.

A few years back I knew a boy with a williams, worked on it and drove it a few times (seemed dog slow compared to my black ph1) and he was gettign an exhaust made, I saw the prototype and damn was that nice.
