im not sure what my current manifold even is thinks its a type a or b though the collector looks very big but the primaries arnt massive massive think it was £180 direct from btb. mine makes peak power at 6600 which tells me either the manifold aint man enough or the cams are to tame, again cams were bought as couretnay high torques a few years ago not actually sure if they are any good at all

Pic of manifold?

My peak power was still climbing at 7200rpm, so I've fitted some ARPs and it's going back for tweaking

dont think ill be that lucky lol maybe sell the btb one on there and my gsi kit to pay for some of it. think james wants £300 for his manifold but i have heard they can be had foe not much more new, as for cams dont ever really see them come up, not for £20 anyway! mapping i reckon around £300 also at a guess

Not a typeC specifically, but still as large probably.

They do; my SBD TypeC manifold (that came with receipt from SBD) has 'BTB' manufacturing stamp in the exhaust flange
