I'm sorry, but I dis-agree. Compare to this piece. Check out the price at the bottom of the page.

I've installed three of these. Huge power gains. Temps are lower. Car's lighter.

F&cK, suddenly there is a lot of guys who are engineers with R&D skills but only extracting 280hp out of their cars, rolfmao. A new generation of rennlisters.

Let me ask some questions, How long do you think it takes to make a manifold? How much do you think Materials cost? Do you have a $3k+ tig welder? Do you know how to weld? How much do you think a shop rate should be ie. $$per hour?
After you covered all those bases and trust me I left a lot out, You have to think to yourself,
HOW MANY DO I THINK I CAN SELL?

We'll find out soon enough. I'll dyno it soon since that's what everyone likes to see (personally I think most is bs to use as comparison unless on same dyno)
I just got the car a few months ago and I've just finished putting a to4b, 60-1 using a T4 .58 ar ptrim turbo on it to start the festivities. Right now I've got it tuned running at 20 psi at 6800 rpm with a 11.5 a/f ratio. So I guess you could do the math
. Oh and I'm also using E85 and I have a meth spray running at 15 psi.
Now contrary to all the k26 belief, there is a distinct diference between 20psi at 4000 and falling to 13 at redline (k26) and what I have at this point.
I'm really just in the infant stages withh this car at this point. I guess though I could mention my littel supercharged car that went froma 120 hp rocket to a 240 hp slug with a just a small amount of tinkering .

The way I see it we always seem to try to make the stuff ourselves that I don't have a problem going to the vendor through, mainly because it's not expensive stuff to begin with. What I would really like to see is one of you guys fabricate an intake and a three inch down pipe. I expect to be overcharged just because I'm driving a P-ride and I love to support our vendors but I can't imagine for one minute charging $1000 for the intakes and $350 for a DP. I'm not bashing anyone here, all the vendors have the same unbelievable prices for these products and the worst part is I really feel like these parts could be fabbed with no problem if you know how to measure and weld. The best part is I would really think you could charge half the current market and still make good profit. So lets have it, what do you guys think. Do I have a point here or am I missing something?
