      I take it this is for the RS2 replica?

          Just clarifying!! There's been talk about the RS2 and the Sport replica in this thread.

            100 Euros up from the first price.

            And what should be the price for the SQ- RSR or whatever it is called?

              Good to hear the factory has it's molds in place. For 550 Euro it would be a winner I think. Actually I would like one of these..... Let's see what the final price will be.

                Hello!
                Im wonder if you can tell something about the alloy and development of the replika
                Rs2 manifold?
                Do you have any knowledge of the construction on the original Rs2 manifold?
                So the Wagner manifold will not have the same heat crack error as
                original Rs2 manifold.

                  Bruno its not so much heat cracking thats the problem, there is no provision for movement in the stock exhaust over bumps etc so with the heat the it 'bends' slightly and cracks

                    i always thought that the movement of the exhaust could be made through the springs holding the cats.Also the wastegate can move due to the 'springlike' connection to the manifold

                      Bruno,

                      the Material is GGG-NiSiCr 3552, also called D5S. The Same is used for Turbine Housings or Manifolds like 1.8T or 2.0TFSI Exhaust Manifolds. The Company, wich cast these Manifolds, is also making all the high Nickel Manifolds for AUdi and VW.

                      Acutally, i wouldt say its a RS2 Replika Manifold, because all Data what we used its just the Position of the Flanges. Everything else is a new Design.

                        I thought that but was told otherwise in another thread a couple of months ago

                        The springs will allow for a bit of movement but not much, perhaps the snub mount mod would help stop engine movement and then stop the cracking of the manifold ?!?

                          Hows this progressing Lupo911? Is the manifold close to release?

                                Sexy!

                                I take it then the T3 can be machined instead of the K26 quite easily due to larger contact surface?

                                How much is the final price and do we have an estimate on bhp limit?
