How can you say it looks like a nicer piece? Because it's shiny? The Invidia isn't made out of cast iron and the outlet into the downpipe isn't 3" since they're using the stock donut gasket. Also, the support brackets aren't nearly as beefy as the Works...besides, the Works can pass as stock especially with the heatshield on.

+1, but not like I'm biased or anything. The Invidia looks nice and I considered it, but like Helix or Megan Racing one its not Cast Iron or retain stock heatshields. I want my car to look very stealthy and this surely takes care of that.

Yeah and it should take care of you're wallet too!! I love works parts aswell as there service!!! 450 for an 02 that if anything performs = to, or slightly better is not worth paying twice for the same part!


I say we get a group buy for those interested in this part! It seems the most reasonable for both party's! I know I want one!!

Oliver, can we make this happen?

Group Buy for O2

Greetings All,

Currently the demand outweighs supply and we can't keep enough in stock for a group buy. Remember, that the price is also reflected in our cost, meaning that it costs us a premium to produce the best O2 housing on the market. It would be interesting to gauge the interest level on a group buy so that maybe we can have more leverage with our quantities.

Maybe we can start a list and see what develops.

Sincerely,

Oliver Simons

The separation actually occures on the hotside of the turbo, it already has a 1.5" wall separating them. I just put my Works o2 housing yesterday

Not without modification. That DP completely eliminates the OEM donut gasket. The WORKS housing uses a larger OEM-style donut gasket around a much larger outlet.
