The casting on the inside of the Topseed itake manifold is imaculant, but the casting on the IACV port was a little off so i wasnt able to use the OEM paper gaskit for the IACV so i just used ultra grey gaskit maker and i dont have any problems at all. Other than that its worth it but if you have the money for the greddy intake get it, I should have bought the greddy intake plenum but im not sure why i didnt cuase i had enough money at the time i purchasd the Topspeed.

It's all good.... I updated mine last night and might have some more later today since I'm off tonight.... I'm waiting on parts like usual.... I think If i had everything in I would have my car done and running by this weekend.... But we live in a F#$%ed up world where parts never get here when they're suppose to. So for now I'm stuck here being bored....

wow jordan, ive been planning and researching for parts for the head and a upgrade turbo for over a little of year and half and you basically are doing the same thing as i. If i have any questions definetly going to ask you. I plan on doing my build in a couple of weeks. Got all the head parts but no peakboost kit yet . I was debating on AEM standalone or rom tune by Enthalpy. I cant decide. Also debating on going with the T3/to4e or .64 3071r turbo. i really want 3071r but doesnt come in kit. Where did you get your kit? I plan on getting it from phase2 or peakboost website. Phase 2 cheaper . how much was yours?

Do you have $500 to spend or $2000 for tuning? That should answer your question. Of course AEM provides more room to expand.

Hi and Thanks for your intrest first i want to ask whats your plans for the car drift, drag, auto X. Also what are all the parts are you going to be installing in your head: cams spring retainers etc. etc metal head gaskit arp head studs. If i were you i would get the 3071r because the T3T4 50trim .63AR that i have is equivalnt to a GT3071R thats what i hear but it depends what you want, whats your goal.

My peakboost mani cost $795 from hybridynamics.

As far as what GTR pryde said, what would you be comfortable buying for your engine managment, A $500 Enthalpy or JWT Rom Tune or $1000 Apex-i power FC or $2000 for the AEM stand alone. Their all great option

I'm most likely going to set it up for more high end power. Ill prolly go with 3071r. I have1.1mm Metal Apexi HGARP head boltsCrower 264 CamsCrower Ti retainers and springsSupertech valvesSupertech valve guidesThats it for the head. Im going to get a 3 angle valve job. Im thinking of getting the AEM standalone because if i mod something later on i dont have to send my ECU away. As for getting AEM i need to find someone legit that can tune it.

Jordan, we need to talk about your cooling setup!

Also, I might be able to pick up your seat tomorrow, it's in a storage unit, hang in there!

Sunday I wanna go check out your car, I haven't been over in a while

Sweet! As long as your setup runs above 11:1 afr, you're golden. If not, then at least you know you're running rich instead of lean.

Also- Jordan, If you want my 560cc topfeed injectors for your CA, i'm sellin them for 100, they don't work as good as sidefeed, so I'm gonna sell them and get some.
