Yes Sir! I don't know what it's going to gain...I just know it needs to be upgraded. Might be a game changer who knows. It will enhance my entire upgraded turbo and exhaust set up

Purchased 13+ Exhaust Manifolds. To ensure they are the good ones I said I was a 2014. They're being shipped directly from Tasca to MaxPower Automotive for custom hand porting. Excited to get my OEM 10-12 Exhaust Manifolds out...thanks to BPD1151 I never knew they were so restrictive. Equally so for showing all the hard work MaxPower puts into their craftsmanship. Why I contracted them to do mine.

I did want Mike's new manifolds but they haven't test fit them yet...plus Mike will be the first to use that custom set. Why I went the route I did instead. Looking to have them on my car in a few weeks hopefully.

I should see a massive drop in WGDC% with them and the EPP Dual CAI.

Cool !

Good to see you are making use of MaxPower Automotive.

Super talented owner (as you all have been seeing from the posts/pics in my rebuild thread).

A real needle in the proverbial haystack for which I am equally as grateful to my long time mechanic / friend for pointing me in his direction.

Excited for you!

Thanks Mike! It's bc of you I reached out to MaxPower before anywhere else. I originally was asking about extrude honing the manifolds but they don't offer that service and weren't sure who still did...made it sound like an old method. Opted for their custom porting.

Purchased the manifolds late last week, just waiting for them to ship as they were special order items.

Can't wait.

The off shades of blues killed me, so had to make some updates to the aesthetics of the engine bay. I am a very large function over form guy, but this is hot.

Good to see copper restored to glory in the engine bay. Suck that, platinum, iridium, and ruthenium!

These came in last week, I finally got around to cleaning out the inside of any oil residue. Will start the install process tomorrow.

Car is dirty, but installed my new R1 Brakes and rotors and matched the calipers. Not the happiest with the paint job but it sure does look good.
