F430 - new manifolds needed

[BenB91]

For those that have needed new manifolds, what's your experience been like please? Who have you used? And tips? Thanks

My last F430 Spider had Tubi manifolds. They are expensive but sound good. Some people seem to get away without them triggering check engine lights but mine required mini cats to be installed. If I was to do it again I’d probably save a lot of money by using Topspeed manifolds and Fabspeed blankets to insulate the engine bay from the heat.

No long after I bought mine I followed AV's advice and got some AP manifolds & had them ceramic coated.

Edit: Mines 2006 and no CEL's reported

I bought Challenge manifolds for mine, had a right issue with CELs afterwards. Multiple attempts by the main dealer to fix but eventually sorted by AV with some tweaking to the engine ECU to tell it to behave and all good since.
