Just received my FP black bundle kit,, they had a sale,, so far install is going smoothly.. Only thing that sucks is that I have to cut and ruin a perfectly good MR downpipe and weld the flange FP sends with the kit,,, needs a few adjustments here and there..

 

LOL, Of course, a sale. How could you refuse.

Well done. Very nice parts (love that waste gate & the manifold)

Post up your no.s

 

Nice upgrade! Heard many great things about the fpblack from my buddies in the past!!

 

the s/s housing will make good power up top. i am sucker for SALE deals too haha.

 

new parts look so yummy

 

thanks guys.... getting tuned soon,,,

How much was the whole kit on sale for?

 

I believe this is where he found the sale on FP's website:

I was looking at this as well but with a red. What head and block work do you have done? Still on the stock 6 speed?

 

Can you put the stock exhaust manifold heat shield on these FP manifolds? The bolts look the same, that would be very useful in California.

 

^^Stock heat shield bolts right on.

 

still on stock block and head and stock 5 speed

 

yes stock heat shield fits just like stock

 

I got my cast elbow to fit past everything without welding on the new flange to my existing megan down pipe- even made it past the ACD. I did have to clearance the A/C bracket flange but that only took a minute of grinding vs. a reweld of the downpipe. Fits under my Works under brace as well just as good as it used to at least.


Before clearancing, you can see where the elbow hits.




After a small amount of grinding.

 

So are running a donuts gasket?? I know the bottom of the cast o2 housing donut lip fits inside of the mr downpipe,,, J just welded the flange that FP ships with the kit,, tho
