TheDuff Posted June 2, 2018 Report Share Posted June 2, 2018 Hi All Been looking on EBay at new (cheap) stainless steel manifolds but they all state not for tiptronic. What is the difference between tiptronic and manual cars manifolds? Has anyone found any that fit or is it possible to modify them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menoporsche Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 ISTR something about the size of the gearbox meaning the bends need to be slightly different to avoid it. I might be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDuff Posted June 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 Makes sense, wonder why they don’t seem to sell tiptronic manifolds on eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always assumed it was because it was a much more limited market and drivers of automatics maybe less likely to opt for sporty additions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably is that reason, can’t be that many less tiptronics sold though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Autotrader adverts I'd always got the impression that Tiptronics were something like 10-15% of sales, only with PDK did they seem to become the default choice.
