Very Nice!!!

Does the Mantzel power box make much difference? Is it just an empty box that bypasses the up and down airpipes for the dual ram thing?

Yes its just a box that replaces the up and down pipes, personally i think it does make a big difference to the power, i think it makes the car lots sharper in most gears,
If you now somebody that can fabricate one i would gladly send you the dimensions of the one i have as it is the same size as the original mantzal one!
 hoping for my tax return this week so i can get my stainless steel system made, the waiting game is the hardest thing when you want something!!

Hi,
 The Hose's are from www.viper-performance.co.uk, really cheap and have a hose for every occasion!
I bought the resonator from courteney sport back in 2001 and my mate had a copy made in stainless steel that i have in my car now(the original is in alloy and has the mantzal logo cast on the top)
And last but not least is the Cone filter that is one of these cheap £30 type that you can get anywere, i had a pipercross viper on my last one and it was £200, this one does the same job,
There is no noise from the cone filter as the resonator seems to kill the noise so the engine sounds normal!

Meant to add, the mantzal power box was about £500 when i bought the original, i sold it on ebay about 31/2 years ago and got about £380 for it but my mate had the one i have now made and never fitted it so i bought it from him for about £200 ;)
