Im doing the 6.5 TME turbo and getting my Stock manifold ported/honed as well as ceramic coated. I woulc like to leave the engine bay as it stands right now.

I am expecting Samco IC pipes as well as a weapon R engine dmper in the mail as well which I plan on painting to match the valve cover.

Bobby,

Does your car ever get dirty? I don't think I've ever seen a picture of your car where it's not bubbly shiny.

You might want to do some searching on the forums about porting your stock manifold...seems like the general consensus is that it doesnt help much, and could end up cracking.

Coating should rock though...I plan on doing the same to mine.
