Probably not gonna happen, I've learned throughout the many swaps, pulls, and installs I've done that I prefer to work alone, its a like a weird spirituality thing for me. . . J/K, I just work better alone. You are welcome to come down when I do drop it in if nothing to sit and drink beer, but its not necessary.

I confirmed with Seb that the USA vs Overseas versions are different, but they are not the same as the AMS turds. Never should have doubted you Anton, my bad yo!

Its all good man no hard feelings, I wouldn't be a part of a group like Z owners Against AMS and then go buy their product, that's just ludicrous, who would do that, seriously?! :inout:

What I am saying is that wherever they are made overseas, they could be made in the same factory as the AMS, just SZ takes the good ones and the ones that fail QC go to AMS :chuckle:

Did you have to special order the ones from overseas? The 5-bolt DP's use to be cheaper on their site because they were the overseas ones and now they are just as expensive as the 4-bolt USA ones.

I know I have neglected this thread and it deserves a lot more attention than I have been able to give it but I though I would just leave these here:

Me on base tune 93 octane, about 600 miles after first start-up (running on 5 cyl because one of the injector pigtails had come loose) vs. Big 16G 1st Gen Auto GSX on E85 Don't know how to embed so click the pic for video.
This is what a TT sounds like with dumped testpipes (:biggrin: check the sig)

Nice! So were you white knuckled, sniffing for any faint smells and listening for weird noises? That's how I was the first couple times I got on it after the build. Lol

I was. It was nerve-racking but at the same time I was super happy in the pants, especially after that run.
