Matt1878 Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Hey guys,Well I will be fitting my aftermarket manifold and decat soon and was wondering what I would need in terms of gaskets?Is it best to just replace all?Which do I need?Are there any I should avoid and any that people recommend?Cheers guys Quote

H_D Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Might as well change decat to exhaust gasket too! Quote
Matt1878 Posted October 18, 2012 Author Posted October 18, 2012 what mani you putting on there ?Just bought the Jperformance one that was on here.Had an external hairline crack that's getting welded. Was only £40 Quote
akyakapotter Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 ah fair play i got a toyosports one sat in the shed with a small crack in it youll love it with a main and decat Quote
daniel_g Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Just watch when removing the standard manifold, chances are its never been off before and pieces of the head can come off with it. Especially at cylinder 3.Look for any cracks in the head and scrape out the carbon from the ports aswell. Quote

micky boy Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 In most cases the head cracks when people over tighten the manifolds!Im sure you already know Matt but take your rad out when you come to fit the mani and decat makes life so much easier!!!Did the mani turn up today matey? Quote
funny onion Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Mine cracked around the stud on the 4th runner because Sam swung off it like a top mechanic when he "nipped them up". I always nip everything up to my standards then Sam checks them. He's now banned. Have it running up to temp, nice and hot, but of wd40 and just go easy Quote
