relocation was pretty straight forward. We left the negative up front as it grounds off to a spot on the shortblock. The positive we hid and extended through the firewall and into the trunk (under the carpet).

In the trunk we mounted the battery into the Taylor aluminum battery box I got. Hooked up the positive from the front of the car and made a new ground for the negative in the trunk. I'll get some pictures posted up when I have some free time to clean the car

Def take some pics of the manifold when it comes in!!!! I want to see what it looks like on the outside and inside!

GJM · 11-14-2008, 04:56 AM

thanks munky. It's def.a sweet manifold. Just hope it performs. As it's a cosworth product I'm not too worried. According to cosworth they saw a 15whp gain on a 2008 sti with tbe. They said the bigger the build. The more hp you'll see. Now. I'm not expecting anything crazy, but if for 900 I can see an extra 20-30whp at the same boost level I'd be pretty happy.

Chris. I got it for a few dollars over 900. You know as well as I do. It's not about performance. It's all bout the looks

gangster manifold, but you can't flip it I thought? Or maybe thats another manifold. haha

**Chris05STi** · 11-14-2008, 07:21 AM

You can flip this mani

!

**Chris05STi** · 11-14-2008, 07:22 AM

BTW, I wonder how much it improves the lag and response!

D, I asked cosworth that before i ordered it. It can be flipped, and the cosworth logo/boost block that sits on top of the mani is also designed to flip around so it'll all work out good.

Chris, i have no idea where i'll see improvements but i'll def. keep ya updated. I'll be doing a before and after dyno tune so it should give everyone some decent data.
