This is what happened to me at WAW when I had a little explosion...I put it down to a fuel leak. My weakest link was all of my APS intercooler piping. Being all silicon, it looked like a peeled banana throughout the whole piping.

Just one thing Tino...Check your valve in your throttle body is still straight. Mine was bent over in a 90 degree angle.

Brad, all is good my explosion wouldnt have been anywhere as bad as urs as the car was stationary.. haha

The welds were shit and the ally used was to thin imo...

im most prolly just going to get the standard mani, weld on a larger plenum with a divider to chanel the air through the runners...

Also going to go with a 8 injector setup...

Something had to give, In your case Tino it was your manifold, in brads case it was his intercooler piping and throttle body.
Stock manifold is tough

I was at that same WAW night when I heard your car go bang, even though I was sitting at the start line. I remember your intercooler piping didn't look too crash hot(Not even connected to the throttle body anymore).

It is definitely worth checking the butterfly valve in your throttle body, but it may be ok if your manifold welds popped first.

I thought id put the post here also...

Im endeavouring on setting up an injector setup and as space is really tight i need another set of fuel rails which are smaller than the convential rail..

Does anyone know of any rails that are smaller than the MRT counterpart??

I would also like ones that have AN fittings..

Im deciding to put it either on the same side (pink oval) or on the opposite side (green rectangle) of the TGVs??

So everything is taking longer than expected, so i decided to mock up a manifold design which had been engineered...

I built it out of cardboard, so its not that precise but you get the general picture.. What do u think of it??

The top and bottom are angled to direct airflow. In addition to the rear round pressure bulb.

The circles on the side indicate where the runners will go.. 1 and 3 on one bank and 2 and 4 on the other, as you can see they are not paralell to eachother. This is to prevent air scavenging from the opposite bank..

The sides are square to ensure that the velocity stacks sit flush against the side.
