Dips looks like a Hartge one to me...they had a tah welded on to them...its a RHD one and has the lambda plug which is a bit confusing as it will be circa 83-86...gives a nice sound and good performance

On the cheep ones stainless steel manifold I bought off ebay the lambda is down where all pipes come together...Why on this one the lambda probe is put on 4-5-6 cyl only ? Would such mesurement be correct? On standard manifold lambda would be where pipes join...

02 feedback under closed loop will affect all cylinders.
as the E30 is batch fired odd and even cyls any correction factor is applied accross the board, so in short, measuring from one runner is ok,
Ideally each bank would have its own 02, as per M52 but there's no provison on the E30 for this.
pricescale Mr Dips.... just under the Hottuning fannymould ??, unless you can find the Hartge monnika lurking in which case it would appeal more as an OE and rare go faster part.
