well scion parts have done it before.. it's all they do.. so i would trust them.. because they've flow tested.. but wherever he went to may be legit too.. but who knows? wait till he hops on the dyno..

My head will be done on friday. i talked to the guy.... everything is going good so... im hoping to dyno my car sometime next week. I just ordered some volks ce28n's!!! Im hoping that with the better air flow from the pnp and the lighter wheels, ill put out quite a bit of power to the wheels. (fyi.. i have other mods too) :D

how long is it since you dropped the car off to whenever it's gonna be ready cause i want to get this done but don't have another car to drive around so the more days it takes, the less my chance is of doing this is.
