awesome
You can everything built to your own specs. I have heard of header logs before but I didn't know they were that cheap. My friends dad is some kind of engnineer and does all kind of welding so I am good there, and the intercoolers were complete right? Only need to fabricate some brackets, find some plumbing, and get a turbo and all the major stuff is done. With a decent used turbo and your own custom plumbing you could have all that for under $1500. That would be before you delt with a better exhaust and all the misc ****, but still not bad.

They can't be that bad performance wise, it looks the same as what was on my 2.3L turbo Ford motor, only that's made from cast iron! You could probably extract a good amount of HP even with that manifold!

I ordered a manifold and some other iteams from these people over 2 months ago and I have seen nothing from them yet. They told me 2 weeks ago that it was shipping out that day and I have still seen nothing and they never respond to my email's. I would use extreme caution if you are thinking of ordering something from them. they may not deliver what they say when they say it and charge you for it a month in advance and you may never get it.

NO and it has been over a month a half since I have heard from them at all. I dont think that I will ever see any thing from that company so I wouldn't order anything from them but if you do just be aware that you may pay for stuff and never get it. I would go with some one else like barely legal transplants, fly'n miata or some one with a good rep. you may to pay more but it is worth it to get the stuff that you had ordered. the it is to pay for something and never get it.
