Ktec manifold & BMS downpipe fitting advice

[danr5Gtt]

As above I have the following to fit to the 5 in the near future.

Just got a few questions.

Do I need to change the type of gasket for the mani or can I keep my original one in place?

Should I also heat wrap the mani too?

As for the downpipe I guess I may need to change the set up of pipes? Eg to a cup set up?


Any help or advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks Dan

Hi dan
Do not heat wrap the manifold it will cause the manifold to crack, the downpipe you could wrap but if it was me I would'nt wrap it, and the standard gasket should be fine.
