So we've been a vendor for about 40 days now and have been so dang busy with nasioc work alone we didnt want to start a classifieds thread because we didnt want to over work ourselves and extend turn around time. Anyways, the time has come to start posting about are services.

Info below. More info can be found at www.grimmspeed.com (http://www.grimmspeed.com)

Thanks again to nasioc for your continued support!


Exhaust Manifold
Welcome to our hottest product! Our Subaru boxer engines kill our spool up time, most noteably because of the very long exhaust manifold. To directly combat this loss of spool up we will port and polish all 9 inlets/outlets of your 3 piece exhaust manifold. We enlarge each port to match up with the stock subaru gaskets, porting ~6-7mm of material at the entrance/outlet of each port.

Turbo
Porting and polshing your turbo is the single most important service we offer for decreasing your spool up times and shifting your entire powerband to the left. We port and polish both hotside inlet/outlet AND coldside inlet/outlet for maximum flow. Currently we have stopped our ceramic coatings for the turbo...if you can't live without the coating please contact us and we can work something out.

**PLEASE CONTACT FOR TURBO PRICING**

TGV Delete
Dont feel like spending 500 for a new set up butterfly-less tgvs? For less than 1/2 the price you can get the same exact benefits from our TGV Deletes. In this process we take a stock TGV and completely gut it, which includes taking out the metal plate, butterflies, and bar. These will allow for maximum flow through the TGV. Stop the engine's heat from entering the TGV's with our ceramic coating. It is very important that heat stays out of the TGV's because this is the last transfer before the intake air enters the engine. Cooler intake air equals more hp.

TGV Delete $179.99 (+ 100 core charge)

TGV Delete w/ Ceramic Coating $204.99(+ 100 core charge)

Downpipe
Match up that turbo to downpipe connection with our PnP service. We will gasket match your downpipe inlet to the turbo>downpipe gasket. If you have a divorced wastegate downpipe we will knife edge(show in picture) the split for smoother air flow. Keep the super-heated exhaust in your downpipe and away from your tranny by adding our ceramic coating. We also advise heat wrapping your downpipe as a second defense against the heat.

Intake Manifold
We bore out the ends of each of the 4 runners to better match up with the inlet of the TGV. From the factory there is a large step going into the TGV, we get rid of that step for a smoother transition. Feel like adding the bling factor with function?...add our option ceramic coating as shown in picture.

Do you have any pics of the "boring out" of the intake manifold? So, you have a manifold and TGV's that are done, and you will send me those, and I send you mine back, correct?


BTW, I need a crossover...anyway I can get one shipped to me by april 15th?

pm me back please.

i'll look around for some pics. yeah we have a both mani and tgv's in stock for the wrx. sti's are limited right now. yep, we'll send you those and then you send your old stockers in so you have NO DOWN TIME :banana:

Do you only port the whole manifold or just the inlets and outlets?

Can I ask why you no longer coat exhaust manifolds (as indicated in the first pic)? Is it a cost or performance concern?

Do you only port the whole manifold or just the inlets and outlets?

we are in the middle of changing our process to port basically the entire piece. previously we have ported the first 2-3 inches because most the gains you get are from taking away the steps, not smoothing out the entire inside of the pipes. but in the near future we'd like to step it up a notch and get the whole thing ported/polished for you guys for that added .000001 hp :D .

imo, polishing the whole inside wont gain much more..but it does have a nice bling effect:devil:

Can I ask why you no longer coat exhaust manifolds (as indicated in the first pic)? Is it a cost or performance concern?

neither. the coating we use can be self cured on the car, however when installing you have to be real careful not to scratch up the coating or else you are going to have problems. we are still doing it but for a reduced cost. in the next couple of weeks we will be moving into a shop so we will have the ability to cure the stuff before we send it out....then we should be game on again.

When are you going to have crossovers available again?

When are you going to have crossovers available again?

no eta right now. definitely working hard to find a new manufacturer because the one we spent the last month working with didnt end up working out.

do you have sti manifolds and tgv's in stock yet....for an exchange?

if you are looking for intake manifold, not yet, and tgv's hopefully soon. if you are talking exhaust manifold, they are the same.

PM sent about this. :cool:

so we decided to mess around with a new blue ceramic coating and it turned out AWESOME. we will officially be coating in the optional blue color..just let us know whether you want stealthy black or the new spicy blue. its a touch darker than WRB but compliments the wrb color really well.

its the same type of coating we have used in the past..just colored.

ordered a pnp manifold last week, can't wait to test it out with the injen cross-pipe.:)

Pm'd regarding pnp of stock TD04. Also do you guys pnp/service throttle bodies? A couple of people stated that they picked-up a little better throttle response time with this service. Could be BS but you never now.

we definitely PnP throttle bodies as well. You definitely shouldnt be looking at a PnPing of the TB to be a big gainer..rather one of those things to do when you have done most other things.

I've talked back and forth w/ one of you guys before via AIM/AOL, and now have a question about non-Suby PnP work.

Wondering about if you could do you intake manifold PnP work on my 240sx manifold? It's a pretty simple manifold and comes apart into 2-pieces, So I wouldn't see it being a difficult job. Just curious if that's something you'd be willing to do?

Thanks,

Jay

Here's a pic of the manifold on an engine, not mine, but to give you a better idea of what I'm asking about.

Interested in having my ej20g INtake manifold ported. Whats turn around time and cost like? any idea as far as gains in flow #'s or if you can balance out what each runner flows?

Also is the colored coating as strong as black?

here is a quick sneak out our PnP on the intake manifold runners...and the coating.

http://www.grimmspeed.com/images/product_images/intake_mani_product_image_2.jpg

Is it possible to have the inside of the mani coated as well or will it not have a signifigant affect?

we could coat the inside if requested.

I think its extra.

How deep do you pnp into the intake manifold, just a gasket match or more?

wow..heck of a busy month for porting/coating. you guys most have all been waiting for the start of the new year to get your pnp projects underway.

Dont feel like spending $500 for a new set up butterfly-less tgvs or $600 for a JDM Intake Manifold? For less than 1/2 the price you can get the same exact benefits from our TGV Deletes. In this process we take a stock TGV and completely gut it, which includes taking out the metal plate, butterflies, and bar.

These will allow for maximum flow through the TGV. Minimize the engine's heat from entering the TGV's with our ceramic coating. It is very important that heat stays out of the TGV's because this is the last transfer before the intake air enters the engine. Cooler intake air equals more hp.

Customers have seen gains of 15+ whp/wtq. We've also seen third party flowbench tests showing an increase from 330 cfm to 480 cfm!

As far as where the gains occur in the power band, your entire power band is going to see an improvement with our TGV Deletes. On a typical STG 2 setup you are going to realize an increase of 5-10tq/5-8hp in the low end, 10-15tq/8-12hp in the mid range, and 5-10tq/5-8hp at the high end. As you can see in the dyno graph, max gains are going to occur in the mid range.
These will also give you a quicker turbo spool up. If those gains weren't good enough for you, wait till you add a bigger turbo...the bigger the turbo you put on the bigger the gains are going to be from getting the GrimmSpeed TGV Delete.

Yummy!

we finally got our downpipe coating service up on the website so you guys can order via our online store.

Ceramic coating your downpipe is a great way to lower engine bay temps and increase velocity of the exhaust gas. Because the location of the downpipe is very close the intercooler, an uncoated downpipe emits a lot of radient heat up into the intercooler(which you want to keep cool!). By ceramic coating you minimalize the amount of heat that radiates off the downpipe and into the intercooler. The downpipe also runs close to the transmission so the coating keeps the transmission cooler as well.

We will need you to send us your downpipe as we do NOT keep downpipe cores in stock.

Ported/Polished Exhaust Manifold with Optional Thermal Coating and HiFLow Crossipe

Our Subaru boxer engines kill our spool up time, most notably because of the very long pre-turbo exhaust tract(exhaust manifold, up pipe). To directly combat this loss of spool up we will port and polish all 9 inlets/outlets of your 3 piece exhaust manifold. We enlarge each port to match up with the stock subaru gaskets, porting ~6-7mm of material at the entrance/outlet of each port and then tapering down into the port. This takes out the large steps in flow and smoothes out the port to port connections. Every piece is perfect matched to eachother for optimal flow.

As far as gains, 3rd party unrelated Subaru owners typically see ~15 whp/wtq gains, most notably in the low and mid range. You should also expect to see quicker spool up time.

The GrimmSpeed HiFlow Crosspipe is an available option if you want to take it to the next step in power gains. The crosspipe is the pipe that connects the driver side exhaust manifold collector to the passenger side exhaust manifold collector. Subaru made the OEM crosspipe very small and restrictive with some very large steps in the exhaust flow path. The GrimmSpeed HiFlow Crosspipe solves all the problems of the OEM Crosspipe. With a 30% bigger bore and zero steps in the flow path, if you want optimal exhaust manifold flow, you need this pipe to achieve your goals. The pipe is constructed of 304 stainless steel flanges(most companies use polished mild steel to save on costs), thick 2" 304 stainless steel piping, and a 304 stainless steel flex joint.

You may need to tighten your turbo waste gate arm because of the higher flow that our porting and coating creates. Start by tightening the wastegate one full turn and then test where you are at. Repeat if necessary.

We also offer an optional Ceramic Coating that help combat underhood temps, prolong the life of the manifold, and will also keep the exhaust gasses hotter which in turn speeds up velocity. Coated INSIDE and OUTSIDE if you choose to get it coated. The pictures of the mani that is uncoated on the inside is just to show you what the PnP looks like.


Recap
-Creates an optimal flow path for the exhaust gas
-Expect gains in the 10-15 whp and wtq
-Optional GrimmSpeed HiFlow Exhaust Manifold Crosspipe
-Coating allows for higher gas velocity which speeds up turbo spool
-Entire powerband shifts to the left
-Direct bolt on to any 02+ Turbo Subaru
-Optional Ceramic Coating
-Keep the stock look for emissions
-Gain hp/tq without having to lose that boxer rumble

This item also available for our core exchange program. If you dont want down time you can pay the upfront core fee and get one of our exhaust manifolds, then get the core fee refunded when you return your old stock manifold.

We can also tap the exhaust manifold for your aftermarket EGT Gauge.

damn good work !!!

wish i had the money to get everything ported and coated !!!

Thanks Rich for the blue bling I got Intake manifold, TGV, Up-pipe, and all. Great customer service call at anytime, especially from hawaii.

Thanks again Rich...

How far into the manifolds do you port? Some claim to "port the manifolds all the way through", is this what is done with yours?

Do you guys do a blue thermal dispersant coating? pm me please

and thank you! i'll let rich know that everything turned out stellar for you!

we port about 3-4" into each port. Your main gains are not coming from smoothing out the entire inside, the gains are coming from port/gasket matching each outlet and inlet so they match up with eachother. this eliminates the large steps in flow that the oem pipes have eat the connections.


Do you guys do a blue thermal dispersant coating? pm me please

currently the coating suppliers only has black thermal dispersant. we have blue and black thermal barrier though.

Hey so I got my intake manifold back form you (the white one :D) and you guys did a damn good job porting it.

Unfortunately I had someone else coat my headers... and they didn't do a good job, and they didn't coat the inside. Can you guys redo them correctly? Its a stock Subaru twinscroll header and up pipe. what would that cost me?

We can absolutely do that for you. coating only is 99.99.

we now have a VERY quick turnaround time. most of our ported items are in stock and ready to ship. the porters have been working some wicked hours lately to get us to this point.

yah!

Justin

how much for the intake manifold port? I'd send you mine and want mine in return since it's powdercoated.

Assuming that this is for a wrx pricing on porting for the IM will run 99.99

Mike

We have many ported cores in stock and ready to ship!!

Why do you guy's coat the inside of the runners?

Why do you guy's coat the inside of the runners?


The insides of the runners on exhaust manifolds are coated. The pictures were taken without coating to show how smooth we get the runners.

Why do you guy's coat the inside of the runners?


The insides are coated to better retain the heat in the exhaust and prevent the rest of the motor from getting to hot.

Can you offer a special that includes the up-pipe as well?

Is it possible to make a block off plate for an up-pipe that has the v-band EWG?

Porting and Polishing: 199.99

Send that turbo in to get the special treatment :)

Our porters thoroughly port both the hot AND cold side of the turbo. This is a great addition for any car setup. There will be a very noticeable increase in on/off throttle response and your entire powerband will shift to the left to get you that much needed down-low power for the ultimate street setup.

Imagine how quickly the exhaust will flow through your turbo now!!

For internal wastegate turbos, we reroute your exhaust gas to have a more efficient path out the wastegate hole.

You can run that set up without a tune but in order to get the max ammount of power from the it your going to need a tune.

Mike

Hey I have been doing a bit of research on coating and I wanted to know from brand to brand of coating i.e. hpc swaintech & the techlines product you use.

Also how is it applied, is it baked on like a powder coat?

Third on the stock intake manifold on my sti (and other subies), there is a bright red coating on this. Is this a ceramic coating for heat shielding? Is it just some kind of paint?

We work a lot with the techlines coatings.

Yes we do bake the coating after its applied, we do this so that the product is cured and can be handled safely without damage.

I'm not sure what type of coating the red is but it is rather hard to take off. I'm guessing its some type of powercoating and not ceramic as it doesn't seem run any cooler then the non coated manifolds.

Mike

ok so i have one thing to ask, how would you rate your headers against any other company's? just wondering because youre just taking the stock headers and making them better. thank you. O and i love my uppipe from you guys, thanks. if i get my headers from you guys, could you give me a break on the price for getting the uppipe? kind of a stretch but, cant know unless you ask.

do you guys do core returns on turbos, specifically a td04? be nice to get a lil better spool but i'd also like not not have my car down for 2 weeks if possible :)

edit: nm, just checked site that you don't.

will you price match Chimera ? (i plan on getting 2 or 3 things done)

Do you guys do PnP NA heads?

do you have a core exchange for the turbo port and polish id like to buy a new stock turbo for my 02 wrx but fully serviced by you ill give mines back as core

i bought a vf39 will a pnp help it much i heard 200-500 faster spool ....so im garanteed at least a 200 rpm quicker spool

will you price match Chimera ? (i plan on getting 2 or 3 things done)

Send us a PM with what you plan on getting done and we'll talk.

Do you guys do PnP NA heads?

At this time we don't. We're looking into getting some official training later this year and then we should have stuff available!

do you have a core exchange for the turbo port and polish id like to buy a new stock turbo for my 02 wrx but fully serviced by you ill give mines back as core

We don't offer a core program for the turbos because of the moving parts and the high expense they can run if something goes wrong.

i bought a vf39 will a pnp help it much i heard 200-500 faster spool ....so im garanteed at least a 200 rpm quicker spool

Definitely! the vf turbos can have a lot of metal removed. We see really nice gains out of them!

Mike

I've been researching what items you have available for PnP. For each item you claim a 10-15hp increase. Now is that actually what should be expected for each individual part that is Port and Polished or is that the hp increase to expect if all options you have available are combined?

I'm very interested in the PnP of the Turbo,TGV, and Exhaust Manifold w/ crosspipe. All with the Thermal Coating. Just want to be sure I have my facts straight on what to expect on actual results.

From that combination of parts you could easily see 30-45 HP from a direct swap and tune. (possibly much more depending on the tuning)

Doing these 3 together not only greatly increase the speed at which the exhaust can leave the car and spool the turbo but it will also make the airflow coming into the car much cleaner and direct.

Do you have an aftermarket up pipe on the car yet? if not i would recommend upgrading that when you do the turbo swap to save your self a headache or two. Those things can be a pain if you haven't done one before.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Mike

Well I'm definately interested. I'll be in touch in the next couple of weeks. First I have to take care of replacing the gears and synchros for the second time this race season. When the car is down, I'll send out the parts to you.

Hey, could you recommend any stronger gears for an 05sti, these stock ones are just not cutting it under race conditions...

Justin just worked some magic on my STI Spec C intake manifold.

My gosh, I'm drooling at the blue intake manifold pics...

I'm curious, bump anyone for performance reviews on this? I mean, is this something you would only want to do much later down the road, after many many mods? Or is it something you would see a benefit from with say, an otherwise Stage 2 wrx like mine? I want the phenolic spacers and the Pnp and coating. One would think all combined would add up to some better performance gains, no?

The ceramic coating on the intake manifold is very effective at keeping your intake temps lower. The port work will yield some gains but its something we recommend doing during or after have your TGV's ported since they're so restrictive from the factory.

How hard is it to do the TGV delete? Once you have the intake manifold off, can't you just delete the butterfly flap?

its not just about removing the butterflys

How hard is it to do the TGV delete? Once you have the intake manifold off, can't you just delete the butterfly flap?

There is a lot more involved in the process. We remove a bunch of metal from the actual housing and completely take out the bridge where the flap sits. Detailed before and after pictures can be found here:

you guys are definitely keeping us busy...we have ~40 orders in the pending queue right now. The porters will be working overtime to try to get the orders out asap.

Justin

Do you guy's powder coat intercooling pipe's?

We don't powder coat them but we can definitely have them ceramic coated for you. The ceramic coating would actually be functional too ;-)

Go for the TGV's like Grimmspeed said. If you can swing it, get the manifold too since it has to come off anyways. However, if you're pressed for money and want to maximize your performance/dollar ratio get the Grimmspeed exhaust parts (manifolds, X pipe, Uppipe). These will yield a decent (butt dyno noticeable) increase in HP and TQ.

At some point, everything becomes a multiplier effect. The freer exhaust gives you more power. The freer intake tract boosts power again, but with the free flowing exhaust it feels better. IMO, it's better to increase exhaust flow first. If you can't evacuate the cylinders, you'll have a harder time cramming them up with the next round of air and fuel.

I have all of these parts and at an AX yesterday had trouble putting down the power out of turns with R-comps (2.5l with the td04). Instant torque!

That's awesome! I think I'm going to go with all the services at some point. I'm having a hard time deciding if I should go exhaust or intake first...I have some spare TGVs and an IM in the garage I bought solely for the purpose of sending them to Grimmspeed...but after what you said I guess it makes sense to go exhaust side first. I've already got a catless uppipe and downpipe ceramic coated and wrapped, which is good. Definitely want that cross pipe though. I was considering some headers actually though....but I don't want to lose the boxer sound. Do you think PnP and coating the exhaust manifolds and crosspipe would yield an equal gain to headers?

I am also considering getting my intercooler cleaned up and thermal dispersant coated by Grimmspeed. I wonder if that would be better to also do on the IC pipes like the guy above was talking about rather than ceramic coating. Ceramic coating anything like that seems like it would trap heat in and not let it out....what do you guys think?

Exhaust stuff is definitely recommded first but if you have the parts laying around then there's no harm in having them done.

Our PnP manifolds are going to yield a different type of gain over a tubular header. Ours are going to give you a nice down low grunt and plenty of low end torque while still providing some decent gains up top. Since we're using the OEM manifolds you're also getting oem quality and strength and dont have to worry about cracking or warping from heat. The tubular manifolds can provide some really nice gains up top but they're going to rob down low power. Reliability is also a very well known issue with them.

Having the IC pipes is going to prevent all the hot engine bay temps from penetrating the metal and heatsoaking the air as it flows into the IM.

Please feel free to PM us if you have any more questions!

05WRX09: I was referring to Grimmspeeds PnP OEM manifolds. They do add good bit of low end and hasten spool.

Another thing to consider are gaskets. Taking off your IM/TGV's requires (at minimum) 4 gaskets to be replaced. If you want to be 100% legit you need a new BPV and TB gasket as well (though I reuse those two often). Gaskets are $$. If you have the parts lying around, you might as well do everything in stages to save money on gaskets and time from doing the same thing twice. The gains won't be as good now, but when you put the exhaust parts on, you'll feel even more from the intake stuff.

Oh yea, I have all the gaskets from Grimmspeed necessary to do the IM and TGVs, plus I have a set of their phenolic spacers. I am really excited to do it all at once, but it's going to cost me a fortune more than just doing the exhaust manifolds and crosspipe from Grimmspeed for now. I only say that because I am honestly scared to attempt to do the IM and TGV install myself. I've done everything else on my car but that scares me. I'll stick to the exhaust stuff because I can do that myself with ease. A local guy quoted me about $250 to do the IM and TGV install though, so I guess that's not too bad.

It's not that hard. 3 years ago I was proud to install my own catback. Now I'm proud to build my own engine from the crank up. Most of my knowledge was gleaned from various forums. Save that $250 for more parts. ;)

Wow thanks, that's a little easier looking than the Omods install for it:

Albeit the OMODS one is very thorough.

O-mods will show you every single little step, almost bolt by bolt. It's helpful for when you get stuck, but it can make it appear more daunting with the over the top thoroughness.

Exactly. Not to mention if I do it in my driveway, I then have to figure out how to get it to a tuner so he can get rid of the TGV issues..... unless it's as simple as plugging in my Tactrix cable and getting rid of the CELs that show up?

It's pretty simple removing the CEL's. All you really need is tuning software or a scan tool to remove codes.

Mike

For sure. I have RomRaider and ECUflash and a Tactrix cable, I can do it...but what I'm asking is if that is all you have to do, or if there is more to it than that. Some say your car won't even start without getting it to a Protuner after the TGV delete install.

delete

The car may run in limp mode. If you're using romraider i'd see if you can find a map for a similar set up with the TGV deletes so you can drive to your tuner (just make sure to stay out of much boost). A protune is required in order to get everything running smooth.

Good deal good deal. I am kind of excited to see what kind of gains doing the IM, TGVS, and exhaust manifolds and crosspipe all at once will get me on the dyno :banana:

Regarding PnP/coating services, would you guys be able to ceramic coat (black) my axle-back Greddy Evo2 exhaust? It's just that last bit of the exhaust with the muffler on it....

I tried to do it with some VHT Flameproof but it certainly didn't last long and now it looks like arse. It looked very nice when it was done the first time. I just didn't do enough prep or coats I don't think. I'm guessing the stuff Grimmspeed uses would hold up stronger and be done right :)

Thought I'd chime in with my $.02. I've got almost everything GrimmSpeed sells. Right now the GrimmSpeed exhaust manifolds, crossover pipe and throttle body are on the car. I had them ceramic coated at a local WA shop performance coating (http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/www.performancecoatings.com/). These guys offer lighter colors than GrimmSpeed and offer chromex. The pnp work looks really, really nice. I can't give an "accurate" butt dyno for the GrimmSpeed stuff because I put the APS TMIC and Cobb UP on at the same time. The car puts down it's power much smoother now and spools faster too. I currently have the Cobb AP stage 2. I have the GrimmSpeed intake manifold, tgv deletes and EBCS waiting to go on. I will put those on right before having the car dyno tuned. Oh yea, I'm sending GrimmSpeed a VF43 for pnp :devil:

These guys have awesome post-sale customer service.

Power w/ daily drive-ability is my mission statement.

I only got the "fresh blast" satin coat 2000ºF (which is the lightest color satin coat that performance coatings offers) for the hot exhaust bits and the chromex 1300ºF for the intake bits and CBE. They have various shades of gray and, of course, black.

The silver is a good stock-ish look. I don't know if there is a durability difference between this coating and the GrimmSpeed coating. However, light colors reflect more heat than dark colors. The whole point of ceramic coating is to insulate, reflect heat back into the exhaust gasses, and prevent corrosion.

From what I was told by the people at performance coating, chromex is a better insulator/heat reflector when compared to the satin coat. However the satin coat has a higher temp rating.

Here are some pics of the GrimmSpeed pnp intake manifold runners. Again, sweet. This was chromex coated same as the tgv deletes. Can't wait to get this bolted on!

Those look so good. I want to do this so badly but I don't want to have to pay someone $300 to install them for me and the job looks much too intimidating for me :(

Omnomnom Shiny!

The install is a little complicated but any one with a strong patience and some hand tools can get it done in an afternoon.

Mike

hey looking in the near future fully port my fp 18g and possibly the dp

how much would just the turbo be then with both being done
of course coating done on the dp

The turbo is 200.00 for the port work and 50.00 for the ceramic coating. Coating for the DP runs 150.00


Mike

ok so 250 for just the turbo sounds pretty good I'll prob do this in the winter when the car is parked

thanks for the info

Yeah if you can afford a little down time it's definitely one of the best bangs for the buck performance wise.

Mike

The turbo is 200.00 for the port work and 50.00 for the ceramic coating. Coating for the DP runs 150.00


Mike
Do coat the inside of the DP as well?

It's not included in the price but it's something we can do for an extra fee as long as it's not catted. PM us for more info if you're interested.

Now is the time to get your porting/coating work done!

Overtime has been the word of the day over here for awhile. Our porters/coaters have been working their butts of trying to get caught up and we have finally done it.

Currently we can have a 2-3 day turnaround on any porting/coating orders. Jump in while this lasts because normally it is a ~2 week turnaround for these orders.

Porting Items can be found here:

I had GrimmSpeed pnp and coat a VF43. I was pleasantly surprised with the turnaround time of only two days! I can't wait to see how it performs.

i also have your up-pipe 44mm wg setup with perrin headers do yea think they should all be port matched

PnP and coating is 249.99 for the labor and supplies. Shipping will likely be between $15-$20.

PM'd about the rest.
