After just scraping through my mot im thinking of getting a manifold before i go and get her remapped to lower the very high co level.
Im currently looking at this.
Subaru Impreza WRX STI Exhaust Manifold Header HKS Styl on eBay, also Exhaust Components, Performance Tuning Parts, Car Tuning Styling, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 01-Sep-08 16:36:21 BST)
Any better ones out there, will the car need a remap asap once i fit the thing.
Another question, how much is the software and cable for the simtek, ive heard the ecu wont need the specific cable/software for your ecu soon, but how soon and will it make my current map redundant?
Cheers

From a bit of reading on here, the type of manifold without decent expansion joints might crack quite easily. I've seen manifolds for sale from tuning shops that have sprung joints thus allowing for expansion. If it's really good quality material, then the expansion may not be an issue and cracking a non event. I'd see if anyone has had one of these before parting with the old hard earned
What mods have got (if any)? Just wondering why you may have scraped through the MOT (mines due next month)

At last count this little lot.
tsl group a decat
tsl group n back box and centre pipe
Apexi power intake
Autobahn88 intercooler
Simtek ecu
550cc injectors
Walbro fuel pump
exedy racing flywheel
exedy 230mm organic clutch
sti 4 pots
jun front splitter
17" gunmetal rota boost wheels
yokohama parada spec 2 tyres
blitz boost guage
tein type ha coilovers/pillowball mounts
Perrin anti lift kit
Perrin crank pulley
front and rear strut braces
Well he said co levels kept fluctuating, im going to give the ecu coolant temp sensor a try with a new one, see how things go, in the meantime if it's still rich then it has to be a fault with the mapping, either way when i get her up for a remanp they can read the ecu to see what is going on.
I may put a multitester across the lambda wires just to make sure there is voltage present.
I did have problems with a boost pipe coming off with the remap so that probably didn't help things but it has been sorted.

So what is a real good set of headers, is it worth my lagging them with tape?
Ive heard harveys mentioned a few times hmm then again my current ones are knocking on, id rather replace them with a 4-1 set for more poke at the top end, she seems to flatten out a bit torque wise.
