JMFab o2 Dump

So who's tried this thing? I've only been reading about the QTP and EPM dumps. QTP's price is tempting, but I'm worried about fitment with my ETS LICP. Same with the EPM. I'm worried about fitment. I hear it fits with the ETS LICP, then I hear it doesn't. WTF?

The JMFab is the most expensive, but it's defiantly the best looking, and looks to be the highest quality. But I'm not sure about that which is why I'm asking. How does it fit with various LICP's? Does is come with a gasket like the others?

It's funny you brought this up. I've only seen the JMFabrications one first hand and I must say it's sweet. Their shop is 1/2 mile from my house and I was interested in this dump so I decided to stop by yesterday. The owner Jim is a real cool guy. He gave me a tour around the whole shop and even took me back to the fab are while one of his guys was welding up..............yep you guessed, and Evo 02 Dump. From the CNC'd tapered flange to the welds this thing is awesome. Great shop and great Products. I told Jim I'll stop by and pick one up as soon as I sell my Helix o2.

I'm sure it's a well made piece. Just curious about LICP fitment and if it comes with a gasket

For anyone who wants to get more familiar with the quality of JMF's work, you can check out Brent's build thread (jump to post #337 for the latest setup):

Jim is about the nicest guy you'll ever deal with, he'll make time to weld up whatever stupid BS I ever need done like IC pipes or wastegate flanges, no matter how busy they are.

I must say his work looks impeccable. I have always seen his parts but never looked at his catalogue of inventory and the craftsmanship in his parts.

I think I know where I want to drop 9 bills for a stock replacement manifold. It'll look nice with a red bolted up below.

The o2 dump comes out to the far left so I dont think it will be a problem. Its a pretty good pic so just reference it and check under your car.

Yeah their site says they ship in 3-5 days business days.

I see you have the EPM in your sig. Just out of curiosity, why are you changing to the JMFab? Fitment?

Yeah, Jim's pretty cool. It's nice to know that I have a Fab shop with awesome fabricators and a great owner just down the street.

Wow, that looks pretty cool. Interesting idea. It's difficult to tell in pictures, but it looks like the dump would blow directly onto the LICP. Reminds me of JSpeed's downpipe except it's only available recirc'd.
