Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Outcome without a verified action link

As far as I am concerened there is no difference between the exhaust system on a tip or a man car.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Guys, i'm trying to identify a reasonably priced sports manifold for my 3.4 tiptronic 996. According to part numbers the original manifolds are the same for both the manual/tiptronic. However, many of the email listings suggest that most of the more reasonably priced manfolds 'will not fit tiptronic model'. When ive quereid why they suggest that the sports manifold they are selling differs from the OE manifold resuting in a clearance issue for tiptronic models? Has anyone out there with a tiptronic fitted something that they can recommend? QM

POST 2Original post

Same for both man or tip. These: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STAINLES...-PORSCHE-911-996-3-4-3-6-CARRERA/152817289332 or these: http://www.gm-carsolution.de/PORSCHE/Faecherkruemmer-387/Faecherkruemmer-Porsche-996-997-911.html

Hi QM, I have heard this before but think its just suppliers badly wording ads for parts they are happy to sell but dont really understand or maybe just a stock waiver . As far as I am concerened there is no difference between the exhaust system on a tip or a man car. Alex from topgear exhausts is a forum member and site sponsor send him a PM he will answer your quiery deffinitivly and also may be the cheapest for what you want forum members get 10% of the online prices. see his details in the topgear group buy in the 996 section

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the replies guys i suspected as much. The Top Gear manifolds appear to fit either. QM

Would recommend the Top Gear route - plus you will get some discount as you're a member here. The part isn't the expensive bit - it was the fitting that hurt the most. Every nut snapped. Think it was a discounted 8 hours of labour in the end
