New K-Tec Manifold

[mazmaz]

the probleme is not the fiting on the exist of gaz chamber but the fiting under the car

twingo is very tight


anyway I will take picture of the engine this week end (with standart manifold)

maybe picture of the decat on it in 2 week if I have time

Great!!...You should de-cat your system :shock:

 

[Oliver]

looks nice. And delivery was quite fast, too.

 

[James-Hilton]

De-cat will fail an MOT right? What benefits will you actually get using a de-cat system over a non de-cat system?

Yes, It looks nice. Delivery is always a 3 days deal, not bad.

What MOT is?, like smoke check?...Yes, Doesn't pass smoke check anymore, I got a few more H.P.s with de-cat

MOT's a British Road "worthyness" test for every car over 3 years old.
It checks Emissions (Smoke Check), Safety Equipment, Lights, Brakes, Tyres, Suspension...stuff like that.

James, it won't pass without at least a sports cat or a friendly tester....
Generally OE Cats are INSANELY restrictive and choke HP. So the decat frees up that restriction and HP.

Yes the best is to found a Friendly tester

I need to look for one

Id love one and still trying to justify it (the renault exhausts being made of cheese seems to be working for me so far). But I don't want huge amounts of noise so would need a large silencer to bring it back down, which then makes me wonder if it would be worth it or any of the released power would be all sapped back up again

Yes it will fail, but I don't mind having K-Tec fit one as one of my best friends is an MOT Tester in one of the local garages so more Horses and NOISE!

Maybe I should befriend him as we'll and then get that decat too.....

Must be a good friend, for him to risk loosing their VOSA testing licence :?

[Mexicano]

Here is when I love Mexico.....to pass the smoke/noise check You just need some cash :lol:

 

[lemat1]

I think the problem is, that the engine is mounted in the wrong direction....

look at Peugeot what they can realize in the 1.6l IRC car....

[MovingShadow]

They should wrap some heat resisting foil or whatever around the manifold.. probaly scorches your face when you pop the hood after you've ragged it.

Anyway, I'd really like to see what gains the 133 gets from this manifold. Can't believe noone has shown some figures yet.
