Hi fella's

Have been told by a friend of mine that The German emission laws changed around the time my car was made and as such my car was fitted with a suffocating manifold and that if i got the correct manifold for the engine it would give me an extra 50bhp or so anyone know if this is true??

He reckons it would only cost around £60. Seems too good to be true.

Yeah thought it was too good to be true, he seems as though he knows what he's talking about too. reckons il get remap for 150 quid tht will give me 30 bhp, the max iv seen 18 bhp for around 300 quid.

Is this about the manifold actually true? or is that b0ll0cks too?

I cannot see it being the manifold itself... But if the manifold IS restricted then it must have a simple addition to it that can be removed, like welded shims inside the manifold ports for example.

Its definately worth taking off to compare with similar one.
