Im assuming this is something to better help the turbo guys but what kind of affect would this have for the NA guys. I know you said it has no draw backs but is is going to make a noticable difference for us non turbo guys?

any estimation of price range? If its something like 40-50 bucks sure that'd be doable. But it the price is up in the hundreds and it really wouldn't do much unless you have a turbo it might not be worth it for a lot of people.

Prices would be competitive and shipping would be cheap since it would come from a Domestic source.

As for NA guys vs. turbo guys... the gains might not be the same but they should be noticeable. Especially if your someone who has everything under the sun already.

As for just making them since they seem to be wanted i'll pause to see how things go with this poll. I've invested in products that haven't done to hot and others that have... in the end patients is on my side now and will remain there.

Keep the inputs coming guys.

Are they thicker than the stock gasket? Will the stock studs be long enough to bolt them on? I'm guessing so, but I figure I should pose the question to be on the safe side.

Thicker than stock... yes!

Will they still seal... yes!

Will stock studs be enough... yes!

Install times for descent mechanical person... 30 minutes for TB, and 1.5hrs for Intake Manifold.

hope this answers some questions...

80 AUD + 5 AUD packing + 30 AUD shipping = around 90USD shipped for the intake manifold one, plus you could add the TB one and save on shipping i'm sure

i'm sure you could do it cheaper boe, saving on shipping costs alone

As far as these go i was thinking of selling as a set only in order to save on shipping and other costs.

I'm shooting for 60-70 bucks shipped. Since it will be shipped from a domestic source they should arrive within 5 business days max.

Sound good guys?

yeah, i think thats def. a great idea packing them together, cause they are both kinda small, it'd be a waste to sell and ship one without the other
