Allright guys, I ordered an equal length manifold, aeromotive billet fuel pressure regulator, braided stainless oil lines for the turbo, a deltagate, ross pistons, and pauter rods from Marc at http://www.import-autoperformance.com, I just got the first shipment with the manifold, fpr, oil lines, and deltagate in yesterday so here are some pictures

I'd definitely recommend IAP, Marc has kept me constantly updated on the status of my stuff and has always been ready to talk on the phone about cars and has offered quite a few tips!

That oil line kit is SOLID...I cant wait to put it all on :-D As for the deltagate...I'm not sure how much it would be individually, I purchases quite a bit from IAP and we worked out a package price.

Use the Delta gate carefully. I have herd a few times that the spring can break inside causing overboost.

I've heard the same thing...but I've also heard good experiences. I'll be careful and see how it works out :) I allready took it apart and the only way it looks like it could break is from just simple metal fatigue.

By the way, the link for Import Autoperformance doesn't work in the first post...

GenX Muscle or something is the site name (IIRC)

BTW, if all you want is a Deltagate, we sell them for $190 a piece, plus shipping. They come as kit, with silicone hose, brass fittings, and all the springs from 3-13 psi. Email me at [email protected], if you need any Turbonetics parts. Sorry, just helping out; not trying to jack the thread, or anything. That manifold is pretty nice looking. I would love to upgrade my RevHard to something more like that one. Does anyone know if Marc sells the manifolds alone? If so, what kind of price?John

Grrr, its because of the comma...here you go http://www.import-autoperformance.com and the manifold IS available alone to NICO members for 650.

Mark's parts do appear a bit pricey, but I've talked with Marc and the simple way to put it is...I trust him. He wouldn't sell the part unless he believed it was good.

And I haven't heard a reasonable complaint from one of his customers yet.
