STR exhaust Manifold

[urquattro-island]

It

shure would be fun to see some flow figures from this manifold

[Rusty]

$299 on their website or...

$179 on Eb@y_com linky.

Even if that's $ CDN, that's still $235 USD @ 1.28 CDN:USD


I've emailed them about shipping multiple items and also contacted that Eb@y seller to see what shipping costs are...

Have you got a link to the STR website? I can't find it... could be an idea to look into a GB on this as I can't see that the shipping for say 5 off will be much different to the shipping for just 1.

Also seems to have popped up on Eb@y_de for rather more money... linky.

For those looking after a cheapo EM, I just noticed on Ebay a T3 version of the STR manifold. And they even improved the WG flange

however the product does not appear on the STR website, so I do not now if this is a home-made version of the K26 unit, or a prototype.

Anyone got flow test results for this manifold? Be good to compare it to the other options...

Another prominent forum member has warned me off MIJ and I have to trust his judgment.

MIJ in Walsall said 840 in vat for a full 3" turbo back system. Considering it but want to see their work first

[Jamo]

I already told you once on MSN!

It's about £900 from them for full 3" turbo back system.

The company is OJZ engineering of practical performance car fame.

Although they no longer do work for Quattronics allegedly

Cheers mate gives me another option for a system.

i went to corey. he may still have the design to fit the wagner tubular too that i have. had to be custom for me.

ive seen lots of systems in the past. my mate used to supply a subaru dealer with systems as a factory option for bug eye onward sti's and rex's his were regarded as that good and they were not up to the one from corey.

did you go to the company that did the exhaust system or do you know who it was? after seeing darrenm's system I quite like it.

Sounds like most people, at first I was tempted by around 350-400 but since hearing some of the other results people have got this has gone up, luckily i'm still slightly inside the confines of what a rs2 manifold will do.

Plus finding/having a decent downpipe made up is a pain.

i had corey do my exhaust. it is really amazing. custom made by his local company.

i know people have had issues but other than a time delay i find corey a nice guy and the work is top notch.

i found it easier to do the following.

1. drive car standard to corey with manifold and turbo in boot.
2. have corey fit turbo and manifold and send to local guy.
3. collect from corey finished except mapping.
4. limp home on motronic. (it stalls with a big blower just off idle in TPS transition.)
5. map and enjoy the clean, cut free hands.

I'm a cheapskate so would go for the 8 week option

Only thing i'd be worried about doing it that way is if its from ebay and you pay thru paypal your loosing alot of the time that you can claim your money back because your waiting thru shipping to see if it turns up, we all know paypal "might" get your money back but the less chance of that happening via lack of time to claim the worse off it could be.
