Abs or non? Wgnc34

[SLIXK]

About to purchase a manifold for my s2 with Neo, need help identifying if it is ABS or not as there’s either option, cheers.

Not a lot of information in that question. Can't see how any manifold on the car affects ABS, even a high mount exhaust manifold is miles away from it.

Anyway, ABS is a rectangular box at the rear right of the engine bay with a series of brake lines in and out. If you don't know what it looks like, a pic of your engine bay would help. I've never heard of a Stagea without ABS

Don’t got the car atm, can take pix when I grab. Maybe r32/r33 have fouling ABS location? 
 

I added a photo of the manifold heading if that helps.

You should have abs, so go the abs manifold

This is the high mount exhaust manifold in my Stagea. The ABS is behind the heatshielding in the top right.

I have absolutely no idea how any high mount manifold could ever foul the ABS, but regardless choosing the ABS version would be both most likely correct , and least likely to have any fouling issue. If you can't get a pic of your engine bay and in doubt, ask them if the ABS version would be a problem in a non-ABS car (and why)

The Sinco website explicitly says, on the non-ABS manifold version's page,

Will not fit with abs - We do have an abs manifold under our other listing Abs Version

Did you relocated your power steering tank or does it fit without relocation.

Well, clearly, in Duncan's photo.....there is no PS reservoir in the stock location. There's a bloody huge turbo there instead!

[Duncan]

Yes, but to be fair it didn't move far, you can see the cap of the reservoir in that pic too.

Btw, what a/r on that turbo, and is ur engine stock internals?

[Duncan]

No, it has rods and pistons and a GTW3884R.

All the best with your build
