    Default How hard is it do do this to a 1.3sr inlet manifold?



    Its been machined i think. Where can i get this done? What sorta places do it and also any idea on price?

    I think it improves the fuel flow quite a lot so i've heard.

    in particular that is rgv_stu manifold, he will post up how he did that im sure

    it is easy enough to do if u know how to use a milling machine.

    i did my old one and it was sound.

    yes its one of many i did. this one is now on will/novanutters car
    the burr is a grinding bit
    takes about 30mins to do properly, depends how course your burr is

    dont try and do it on the engine cus there is loads of material to take out and it wont make it run too healthy , so the maniflod will need to come off
