So im running a m30b35 engine and the exhaust is blowing all over the place- but think the manifold isn't up to par so was looking at changing the whole system.
what have other zoners used regarding stainless manifolds? I have spoken to fritz bitz and he seems to think the e34 m30 stainless manifold they produce would fit..as the pipes are closer to the block. not hitting the steering rack.
I also found this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/291674071725? ... EBIDX%3AIT

any ideas?

I can't recommend anything, but I wouldn't recommend Fritz after this drama-fest

I'm using the standard m30b35 manifold and downpipes to just past the steering knuckle, then two into one collector and straight through to the back box. Seems to work well.
