Bought it off of a lad on here.

Its is quite a bit bigger bore than the standard manifold and terminates at 2.25".

Not sure on the brand though.

Any one got an idea?

That looks DIY'd to me... Welds are a little messy for a Production item IMO.

Welds are pretty rough, pressure tested it and there are no leaks. Might clean them up a bit with the dremel.

weldtastic indeed

Jay: it's mild steel, I've heard they can crack. Going to buy some proper VHT paint and paint it black. If it flakes dead quick I'll whip it off and wrap it.

Looks to be a home brew that one.

Bends look good but welding looks abit like a Stevie Wonder special.

Will smooth them down with a dremel, make it look a bit more respectable.

Custom big bore 4-2-1 it is then

Mild steel is less likely to crack than stainless.
