McPikie 0 Posted January 21, 2008 Is it true these fit the 8v XU? Any gains/restrictions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arahan 4 Posted January 21, 2008 Im pretty sure they do, i dont reckon they would be any good though, black plastic = heat soak Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony 1,003 Posted January 21, 2008 The 1.9 ZX Volcane engine is basically identical to a 1.9 GTi engine - it's just the inlet, management, and ignition that differ. Late CAT equipped 205 1.9 GTi's also come with a plastic inlet manifold AFAIK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 244 3 Cars Posted January 21, 2008 They fit straight on, I've got one on mine running motronic MP3.1. Apparently they flow a bit better & are quite as bad for heat soak. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miles 331 1 Cars Posted January 21, 2008 Yes better, Lighter and when sprayed silver they stay very cool, possible larger area inside but I never measured them both but allot cleaner inlet tracks for sure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McPikie 0 Posted January 21, 2008 A worthwhile mod then eh Miles? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 244 3 Cars Posted January 21, 2008 Sometying I just though to point out, if you need new inlet manifold gaskts for this manifold they are ~£15 each & you need two of them. I had to order mine specially & they took a few weeks to arrive. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
