Storm Developments - does anyone on here have their own design 6 branch exhaust manifold?


Recommended Posts

Hi

I'm currently having a 6 branch exhaust manifold fitted by Storm Developments to my Golf VR6. It's one of the best on the markets (it's not a cheap make but is very good quality) they tell me and has very good flexi joints which are apparently stronger than the standard manifold's joints. It's all highest grade polished stainless steel. It uses the original heat shield. I was concerned that heat wrap would be needed around the runners on the manifold but I was told by Storm that it was not really necessary - they told me the heat shield would be fine (although I've read in most places that heat wrap is required as well - is this really necessary and would it improve performance if I had it?). My standard engine mounts are in good condition which they said didn't need to be uprated as the flexi joints keep the manifold totally independent to engine movement which sounds good, as I wasn't keen on shelling out

Very true %-6 it is a bit late. Although I have heard good reviews about them on here hence I went with them. Can't wait to get my car back from them - this Saturday to see what difference the 6 branch makes powerwise. Not sure how much louder it will be. Storm did say their 6 branch exhaust manis were very popular - just wondered if anyone had one on here that could tell us about it (as I will when I get my car back :) )
