Audi Sport Quattro EVO Exhaust Manifold Query?

Does this manifold fit an ABY car, and if so is it better than the Wagner RS2 Evo exhaust manifold ?

Don’t fully understand the pro and cons of the two different styles.

Thanks.

In a nutshell, SQ Evo outflows the RS2 Evo, but whereas the RS2 Evo is supposed to be a direct fit for the stock manifold, the SQ Evo is not, so downpipe etc must be modified to fit. Also IIRC the SQ Evo uses a T3 flange, whereas the RS2 Evo you can choose between a T3 or KKK flange

Outflows it by much or just a bit ?

Lots of modification or just a little bit to the downpipe ?

Thanks for the initial explanation.

From what i've seen quite a bit to the downpipe but all depends on what turbo.

Are you going for max with your engine as I reckon personally that the rs2 evo will do for all that most will need.

The rs2 evo one from what people have mentioned is around 5-6mm different to stock. When I helped ross put his engine in we found this, stuff still fitted fine but was a bit more effort to pull the downpipe/wastegate flanges onto everything.

Well so far the rs2 evo is proven capable of 574ps. Personally I think the limit at this point has become the k26 hotside and stock wastegate. Although the manifold is probably not far of its limit in k26 form. T3 should go a bit further as the turbo flange aperture is larger.
