What's up with the Tomei manifold?

Great meet, good to see some old faces again, and some new faces too. Had an awesome drive back up the A41 too, I love that road.

Yes, mine are the black version though: http://www.fensport.co.uk/Parts/Model_108/Category_13/5020

They're around £500 for a pair.

I had OEM lights before. Those are the black Topsage ones that Fensport sell. I have comped together a rough comparison of the two:

Sadly I'm too busy this weekend to fit them. I might be able to get them done before TSS, but I'm not confident of that.

No, but I did get new plates which are the clip on type, so easily swapped for show plates (if I ever get some). Also, Richard is sorting me a Cosworth panel filter to replace the one the body shop removed. One thing I need to test properly is the new headlights. Seems like they have a different beam spread compared to the standard ones, but it's not really dark enough to tell how they perform.

Well to be fair, it's still waiting for the warranty window replacement... And they swapped my air filter for a standard Toyota one!

Got my car back just in time for this.

All fixed!

Yup! Richard called today, it's looking mint apparently.

Hmm, I really should have posted in here by now! Me: My car:

Yes! More gingers!

I'm in as a definite.

And finally a proper ETA, it should be back on the road by Thursday. Counting the days now.

Sorry dude, completely forgot, and he's not in today, I'll try to remember tomorrow!

Secondary cat is in place. If anything it was more noticeable with the stock catback (probably as there is less noise to drown it out).

I think I can hear it, and mine does the same if it's what I'm thinking it is. I think it might be resonance in the manifold tubing.

Which reseller was that from? £200 is still a bit better than a whole new catback...

I mailed Milltek about obtaining just the centre pipe a while back, they said any official dealer should be able to sort you out. I didn't really follow up though as I decided I was happy enough with the noise level for now.

Yes, some of the older Porsches were front engined.

The cayman and boxster have always been mid-engine.

Mine was driver's side, I clearly remember standing under it trying to get the damn thing in.

One of my work colleagues knows Japanese, I can ask him on Monday.

Think I have managed to double book this, oops. Guess I will have to bail.
