I’ll check that out cheers rusty, I’ve de catted my car today, searched high and low for a 4 branch manifold for it with no joy so took the gamble and ordered one off a Vauxhall corsa c 1.4 twin port and it fits perfectly and even mates up to the same flange at the bottom right next to the flexi joint, noticeable increase in power but has now given a slight rasp on initial revs, I’ll soon sort that with an extra resonator box sleeved into the system but has transformed the drivability as I was for getting rid of it for being so damn underpowered

Hi Sri~mike, did u make any progress with this?

I've had my anti roll bar bushes replaced, drop links replaced and brake shims sorted but still have a seriously annoying crash over smaller bumps / even roads.

I've just had a quote of £330 for front shocks & top mounts but having spent £400 already I'm seriously reluctant to double my spending just by guessing at resolutions.

Cheers,
