probably not cause the color will likely change a bit since manifolds get CRAZY hot. I'm curious as to what the sterling jet hot coating would look like on these

Yeah, you would want to get them thermal coated. If we could, I would run it like that too, cause it does look sick.

Could be the spot for the wastegate. And I don't think it's any different than the specs. of the log manifold that's on our car now, so I'm pretty sure the positioning is fine.

That could also mean that these were already sold before they entered the shop too, you know, to those who stuck around and waited for the best instead of settling for second choice.

This recent shippment of manifolds marks their first strike at catching up to the Demand market for their kits. Plus with the other options out there for people to purchase from, also takes a little weight off of ZPI's shoulders (as at one point, they were the only turbokit manufactures).

Whatever you do, don't buy a kit and go on vacation at the same time. We made that mistake, and now our pockets are dryer than the Sahara.... Well, actually it wasn't a vacation, it was my boys wedding that I was in. We had a present to look forward to though when we came home. The day we came home from our flight, we made a 3hr trip to ZPI to pick up the car.

It was like Christmas or better yet, a kid in the candy store.


PS...just had a pick up game. IS300 added to the list of kills. He had a 3 car length head start, then I walked right past. Only visible mods were suspension.
