Anybody on here got one of their inlet manifolds on there car?
What is the quality like?
Are you using TB's or carbs?
Does everything match up (ie the shape of the inlet ports)?
Tommy
dont have a boggs manifold myself but I've seen a few and quality looks top notch
Work of art mate, was shown around when going on the rolling road, first class mate but not cheap.
Cheers

Fantastic
have a look at there web site
I have some. Quality is excellent. But as said not cheap.

Workmanship and finish is excellent, but my Zetec manifold doesn't match the ports in the head, the oval bits are ok but there is no raised bit
to match where the injectors were.
Seems to work fine though......
yeah mine was from bogg brothers and top notch
Quality of fit and finish looks excellent. Quality of design less so.
Hmmm good from what I hear.
However, Rover V8 manifold for 8 x Honda CBR600 throttle bodies is.....
OVER £550.... Thats a Tad expensive.
However, Altiss Engineering is also a similar price
I had a set on my bike carbs when my car was a zetec - it was BEAUTIFUL!
I couldn;t weld at the time, so took it for granted, but looking back it was top notch.
Have you tried Ian Richardson at Wildcat Engineering? I have his inlet manifold and throttle bodies which to my recollection did not cost a lot more
than that and its pulling 400 bhp +400ftlbf on the dyno.
Think you can get him on 01341 450 200 normal business hours. All his stuff is custom made and exported to V8 race engine builders but I guess he can
spare a few
Cheers
here's mine (late model ZX9R carbs for an efi pinto head)

It's a lot cheaper to get bodies that can be re-spaced and then attach them in the same was as they do on a lot of bikes, using the rubber inlet
flanges.
I've done this with carbs and it works great, with no need for a fabricated manifold at all.

If you've got a ZETEC why not use a ST170 inlet manifold with GSXR 750 bodies.
You can use the Ford injectors and fuel rail block the openings for the bike injectors, much cheaper, better job, no messing about.
ive got a c20xe 
I had one. Excellent quality and considering the time to make they cant be charging a lot per hour. Seem expensive but for bespoke fabrication are actually very good value. Factor their customer service and good value rollin road set ups into the equation and they become even cheaper.
