I really don't want to sell this as I wanted to keep it if I ever decided to do another v6 corsa but with me saving for a house I need to sell I few things.
Right here goes , this is a really rare chance to get hold a a 6-2-1 manifold for the v6 engine, this was fitted to my 3.0 corsa and the difference was unreal. No modification needed to steering rack or bulk head these are mild steel and a work of art . Ill get pics of it tomorrow when I'm home from work. I'd prefer collection on this but will post at buyers expense.
Base price of. £350 , if you don't like the price don't bother posting in the thread and good luck finding another.

Thanks, Would you know how much bhp it added to your system? I have a 2.5" exhaust system so it should marry up fine. Wondering if it's worth justifying the price I'm willing to pay for the gains.

I'm going to ring up powerflow on monday as the guy who does the quotes isn't in today, and see what price he can make me one for. If it turns out to be more expensive than what I am willing to offer J200 then I will make an offer on this manifold.
I'm just worried about if the torque/bhp gains are justifiable with the amount I'm going to pay lol. I would love this though.
Hmm. Lets wait for the pics eyh

Would it be possible to get a pic of the full system as it's hard to tell and figure out the work of art from here.

Hmm, That's all pretty and stuff lol! I will be finding out tomorrow if I want it or not It would be nice to have it though lol.
Really would like to bolt a saab turbo on the v6 though at a later date so this manifold will be useless then as I'd have to custom make one anyway.

Research the Saab turbo before doing it, it's pointless they don't make enough boost to do anything why do you think they don't have intercoolers , if you are going to turbo it use a turbo from a vectra vxr . But your looking at big money doing something like that. Sorry for late reply but was away this weekend ill get pics tonight

Thanks, Looking forward to pics, may change my mind to either n/a (this manifold) or forced induction, not sure yet.
