    i had a magnex on my old vr, they do seem to be very poppy. although it is odd that it pops while changing up gears(unless you are changing gears really slowly ) as the popping is excess fuel that combusts in the exhaust when the car engine is slowing and doesn't need as much fuel , it shouldn't have excess fuel if you are accelerating i don't think.....although i may be wrong

    that will be knightmare when it rains, the mesh sits right over the top of the manifold turning your spark plug wells into water wells.....not good:( and if it isn't mesh then it will turn your bonnet into big puddle!

    ive not had any dealings with gwent, but i have heardsome rather unfavourable comments about them, i bought some lifters from germany and they sent me 2 right hand side ones that confused me for a while. when you get the right ones the fitment will be clear when you offer them up to car, make sure you don't lose the little 'u' clips

    hi all, as title says really. can you clean the inside of the manifold when its off the car? mine is full of buffing debris. what's the best thing to use and the best method? cheers

    mmm....not good, but its best not to fart around trying to get them to fit, just have to get them to send you the right ones or flog yours on ebay (may fit earlier models) and buy a new set

    you can run the car indefinately with the matrix bypassed as it only controls the (surprisingly ) the heater, just make sure the connection is good

    as PHM said, if they is fooked you will defiately be able to hear them when you open the bonnet, sounds like a very noisy sewing machine. but if your engine is looked after with regular oil changes with a quality oil they should last way past 100k

    no need to drill any holes, when you hold them in position you will see which ones to remove.its the bolt above the grounding lead and the corresponding one on the other side. see photo
