Mvaux that make the kits will do you a manifold direct from Brazil for a fraction of that cost. You may aswell get pistons while you are at it, or fit LET pistons & rods.
Nice engine that'll be if done right. 300bhp+ easy.

aye the Ebay kits are jsut some bloke taking double the cost of the Mvaux kits off you, then ordering so it takes just as long as if you were to order from Mvaux direct. But ive heard there were problems with Mvaux serivce/quality a little while back.. not sure if thats fixed yet

get onto migweb and look at stefans 2.0 8V turbo project. and also look for mvaux/matheaus threads to see if the mvaux "problem" has been fixed.

Screamer69 also has a cool thread using one of those kits.

What the kits dont include is the pistons, intercooler, pipework & other bits.
Still good value.

DOOOO IIITTTTT! ;)
