VSR by AMS and a 75mm. Every time I stop by the shop, Alan has a new part. Still need the Catch Cans?

How come that manifold doesn't have the AMS brand on that? Did they only recently start doing that?

AMS did not always have logos on everything....Just like the only difference between your new AMS exhaust and my old one....its the addition of the logo after the release of their product....

I know what it is...no need to try to prove it just because it doesnt have a logo welded on to it...and it came from a reputable person that also happen to have the AMS Race FMIC and the AMS 35r kit for sale

If you cant see they these are the same except the logo then so be it

Nice find on those parts Alain! When will the install/tuning go down? What are your power expectations?

BTW...I was reading on AMS' website site that if you are using their VSR intake manifold and making under 650awhp you should use a stock TB or a ported stock TB or else you will have idling issues. What is your plan to address that potential issue?
