I run Maniflow LCB on my 1310 but those look good. What do they cost?

I will be ordering a set of these in 2 weeks as they have none in stock and then fit them and let you all know what I think of them then.

They cost on a confirmed price of $352 of $552 HPC coated.

I've run a set on my sprint mini for over 5 years, had them HPC'ed. A few of the Group N guys in Brisbane also run them. I'm happy with mine. They are a very tight fit against the firewall, and to help with clearance/head removal/etc I use cap screws instead of manifold studs. Steve

I've had my ceramic coated ones for about the same time as Steve.

No problems but remember they only work with a Weber, not SUs

I rang them yesterday anf they said yes they will fit with a MG Metro Alloy 1.75 Manifold and all the has to be done is a small amout of the manifold has to be ground away to make a bit of clearence.

Maybe they need to update their website

"Designed - in the heyday of the Mini Cooper 'S' - by Ron Brownrigg. Intended for maximum power, hence these extractors can only be fitted when a Weber type inlet manifold is used, or in conjunction with our Supercharger kit."

These had only just been fitted about a week ago so give them time to change it.
