Received mine today, 1.5 weeks after my order date. Cost was just over $600 shipped.



Thanks for the tip!

Sounds like you got a great deal with shipping did you order from www.bestpartstore.co.uk? if so Credit goes to Jim Wong.
I'm super happy with the temps are always lower since I started recording them and instant recovery after spirited driving.
I did a stage 2 tune and it took some time to convince myself to upgrade IC's.looking back super easy should have done it with the exhaust.

I got myself and two friends sets of these, $653 delivered. So if you got them for $600 delivered you scored big time

The lucky number for me was $606.66 per set also ordered (3) sets to save shipping costs.
Big time score prices change daily and are currently out of stock on the left side.

Actually, I was just snapping pictures.... I'll send you a pm about the ducts, as I have a virgin set of IC's as well.
