It is the same one that was used on the Eurospec conversion and also on the Tiico conversion. It has the flange tipped on an angle toward the front of the van and then you would have to have a connecting pipe made up that goes from this flange and back around to the catalytic convertor. I don't know what car it comes off of though. >> The best exhaust manifold for these I4 conversions is the unit from the Audi 80. In its 49 state version it is a 4 to 2 manifold pointed down, towards the driver and to the front. The CA version is a single but large port (4 to 1). These are found on the 1988 to 92 4 cylinder (3A engine) cars in the US and the Audi 90 in Canada. The rear exhaust flange is unusual, so get it at the same time from a junker. AFAIK, this is the same manifold as used in the TIICO. As for the routing, the mount points and the use of flex, see the archives!!!@ Frank Grunthaner
