Title: Exhaust manifold upgrade???
Post by: HockeyDave55 on 06 June 2012, 21:26:21
Hi from me...

I will be getting rid of my EGR kit and I also have a cracked exhaust manifold so....
In stead of blocking up the EGR port on the drivers side manifold, I have been thinking of fitting the manifolds from a 3.2.... Here's my question... Do they fit? Not just the heads but also the cats???

Yep, use existing cats

You`ll have to remove/blank off the SAI, reposition EGR and keep connected to prevent fault code and shave app. 5mm off the cat flange where it meets the manifold

I'm taking the EGR and the SAI out and fitting them both to the bin.
As far as shaving 5mm of the flange, that's easy and I guess it will be clear when I do it?

You can fit a little circuit to fool the ecu re. the EGR
