HI all,

 

I have the maniflow Injection lcb manifold installed with standard CAT and RC40  exhaust.

 

And basically it sits too low. It appears that the Manifold end is too low and even with the link pipe i cannot angle it up enough that the cat sits anywhere near the bottom of the car.

 

Has anybody else had the trouble?

 

<is there a better Fitting LCB manifold for the injection - (the only one i can find is the cooper sport version) 

 

Any ideas?  -  Apart from getting somebody to customize the exhaust😜

I went back to the standard manifold/downpipe that came with the car from the factory. I got really tired of the LCB eventually going rusty and having to be chopped off. I can't see much difference in power and it's let me get the cat to sit as high as possible

I have the standard cast iron manifold, much quieter with no noticeable performance loss, and a Mini Spares C-AEG371 Downpipes and Link Pipe for Injection Cars.

It fits nicely and my previous ground clearance issues were resolved.
