For Sale: Quicksilver 4.2.1 extractor exhaust manifold

Quicksilver 4.2.1 extractor exhaust manifold

Ian is selling a Quicksilver 4.2.1 extractor exhaust manifold – for 2ZZ S2 Elise/Exige. It is used and there is a small leak at a primaries merge section that needs re-welding. Has been welded previously.

This is a lightweight unit of aircraft stainless steel. Equal length primaries 42mm, secondaries 47mm into 63.5mm. It suits n/a and supercharged cars. Adds torque in the mid-range without low range torque loss and gives extractor pulse sound. Sensational sound at high revs. Most effective performance-wise when combined with improved induction.

Wideband and EGT bungs have been added. Can be blanked off. Downpipe needs cat replacement.

In Sydney I recommend Westside Mufflers in Padstow for the required welding work.

Asking $400 – for pick up from Potts Point, Sydney.

President's Prattle October 2024

My apologies before I begin for the silence last month – by the time the Great Cape Rally finished on 7 September and I got home and worked out which way was up, it was too late to call it early September still! But there’s a wrap from the rally here if you are into that sort of thing.
