    thanks for the reply guys! well I enquired about the Cosworth SC and was recommended to get the Ace manifold and pair it with a cobra exhaust. I do plan to do everything so weather I do the NA stuff first or FI first or all in one go, I will get there.

     

    But I just thought, the Cobra manifold is £700 odd and their over pipe is £150 ish and thats a hell of a big difference to the £1500 for the Ace manifold.

    Like if I can save a bit of money and the Cobra manifold and exhaust along with the Cosworth is enough, I'd be happy to save a couple quid. Unless someone has experience and justify the £700 extra lol.

    @knightryder yeah a couple of my mates been down to Abbey MS but I think I have my heart set on the Cosworth.

    I'm a big fan of the Cosworth Supercharger; Would I be right in assuming that if I went for the TD NA kit, once going forced induction, I could go for the Cosworth at another tuner? Ofc if TD had the Cosworth, I'd do it all in house but I'm guessing I'd just have to re-buy the license again if I end up going to Fensport for the SC?

    Hi ladies and gentlemen new user but long time lurker and first post!

    I am considering getting my 86 supercharged but am actually a noobie when it comes to mods.

    I've done tonnes and tonnes of research often going back and forth with various bits and bobs but thought maybe its time I make a first post.

    Anyways, I'm looking at the Fensport site and looking at the exhaust manifolds from Cobra and Ace and there is a huge price difference.

    Here they are: 

    Cobra: https://www.fensport.co.uk/parts/toyota/gt-86/zn6/exhaust-system/gt86-and-brz-cobra-4-1-uel-manifold/    - £705.60

    Ace: https://www.fensport.co.uk/parts/toyota/gt-86/zn6/exhaust-system/ace-club-sport-400/ -    £1558.80

    Aside from the fact that the Ace manifold has an over pipe, essentially what would I be paying the extra £853.20 to get? and is it worth the premium?

    Ideally, I'd be keeping the car modest and not going too wild with power - below 300 bhp and using the car as a daily and just going on spirited drives.

    THANKS!
