Ok dudes just wondering what people think i would be better off getting out of the above two options. Would like peoples experiences with each manifold and how they have affected the performance etc of the car. also have there been any fitting issues or problems with either of these manifolds. cheers. paul

both manifolds are very good, sps one is a good value for money and comes pre coated.

if i were to choose it would be zisco due to the runners but remember if mild steel it needs coating really which is quite £££

i would say go for a zisco stainless one .

also, i had the autobahn mani and that was a bastard to fit!! i fiited one of danes only couple days ago and the holes lined up but when it came to putting evrything back on it was slightly out as the sps decat didnt line up at the bracing point.

im sure ive heard the zisco ones dont clear with the standard rad due to the even flow ruuners but not sure

its very hard to get a product to match 100% lol, but i've never had aproblem with the sps ones, i think everyone who has used them have had good results not only in performance but fitting too

i noticed a difference in the performance straight away after fitting it, and with the price dane offers for the coating is unbeatable, but then we need someone who has tried the zisco one to get some more input

i'd reccomend the sps ones lol, :)

the zisco is good.

the mild steel one is bullet proof, a simple heat wrap will stop it from rusting and make the under bonnet temps much cooler.

it wont fit with blitz or autobahn intercoolers though, other than that there pretty much spot on

nope zisco clears stock rads, just not the autobahn or blitz coolers like said above

Not comparing the too, but in regards to the heat/flow properties of s/s and m/s, s/s wins!

Zisco can also get them made in s/s anyway.

pretty sure dane has had no negative feedback on his manis, and everyone who got one seems to be very pleased with the results. I havnt put mine on yet but its a very nice manifold in the flesh. He is also a top lad to deal with :cool:

Cheers guys spent alot of time getting these manifolds designed and made. I am perfectly happy with the result and a further good consequence of this is that over 70 of them have been sold they have gained a valuable reputation which i regarding very highly. There is alot of crap manifolds on the market and its hard to find ones that you can trust fully. Zisco and myself are certainly two of those people.
