has anybody got their manifold as yet?

 

Meh. Most don't even use washers on the manifold and a lot remove the studs for bolts, myself included. The lock nuts can be re-used a few times. This shouldn't be an issue.

 

I received my tracking number today. Estimated arrival is 12/10. On my invoice it looks like I was the 3rd person to order.

 

Glad to see that they are finally shipping!! I did get my bolt kit today!

Hmm interesting.

 

I wanna see what numbers these put out

 

I'm having mine coated...sure that might take a bit longer to receive. Haven't gotten a tracking number yet, but I'm willing to wait.

 

are those bolts and studs for the manifold to the turbo?

 

If you care to share, how long are those bolts?

 

So what goes where? I take it the two long bolts replace the two rear bolts from the mani to turbo (closest to the head), but not sure where the studs go...

 

^ from this picture, looks like the two long bolt are for rear and two studs are for front. can't you use two oem bolts for the front instead of studs?

 

yes


80mm

 

Maybe I've missed it. But is there any data on this yet? gains, graphs, etc?

 

Psssshhh, No...That's the problem. Would be nice to get a rough idea what people will see. Back to back dynos on a stock vs FP one. We understand environments, etc...blah blah blah are different. Rough estimate of 10-25whp would be nice to see just bolting it on. Then a tune estimate of 30-40whp. I'm just throwing out numbers and so can the manufacturer and we can't hold it against them.


I guess it's better to just get more personal numbers once we buy them and do a review. We can all agree to disagree B@#$%s!
