You don't lose anything with their Garrett kit, so I'd assume everything still works with this one.

khanhvu411 · 06-10-2013, 07:12 PM

Anything about the installation manual yet?

Dzel · 06-10-2013, 07:15 PM

Negative I really want to see it so I can decide if I'm going to put it in or having to wait for an install.

It is really a decision point for me if I am going to get the kit now or save enough fund for a complete install from a shop. I just dont want to get the kit and sit on it. My wife will not let me get spend more than 6k and just let it collecting dust

The GTR plugs will work fine,it is my understanding that the HKS dissipate heat better.
And yes the GTR plugs go right in no issues.

SPOHN · 06-10-2013, 09:57 PM

What's all the hassle about the instructions? It's not going to be that much different from there other kit instructions. Some of the intake piping is different shaped. Don't make it harder than it is.

Chuck33079 · 06-10-2013, 10:13 PM

It should be a hell of a lot easier than the Garrett kit since you're not drilling and tapping the head or upper oil pan.

anyone have any completed builds of this kit yet? awaiting mine

I don't really think this is gonna be a crazy difficult install. ^^

To be honest, there are gonna be at least a dozen of us probably doing the install at the same time. Maybe we can start a thread in a few weeks where we can post questions about the kit, give tips and hints and whatnot? I think it would be a nice thing to add to and to reference to for the 80+ people doing the install.

Whatcha fellas think?

I'm dreading the headers but aside from that, I'm thinking it's going to be pretty straightforward. I have a couple buddies that offered to help, one of which is a mechanic. So I think I'll be in pretty good shape. I think a thread to share tips and tricks for the install is a great idea

We are pleased to announce that our production manifold has made it to our CNC machine center today for final machining process meaning that we are getting closer. As promised, here are some pics.

Oh my lord. SEXY!!!!!!!!

Defiantly looks like the flow characteristics are changing for the good.

How many can that machine make a day?

Does that change the design or length of the down pipes? Or is the placement of the mount the same?
