Hey Oliver let's see what your pmax/headers/manifold has against my mtw stage 1. I'll see if I can borrow a gopro so we can film it.

Im definitely jealous of that intake! Do you think you'll be able to do all the same things to that blue one or did "monkey nuts" mod it in a way that will make certain things hard to duplicate?

It can be fixed cause he didn't do much inside. I kinda wanna do this one better and sell you the red one haha

You forgot to mention that you kept the EGR System intact too.

call me stupid but explain how you are bolting it down? not using the stock bolts i have gathered. but how are you getting a socket down inside the holes and holding the new bolt at the same time? i may just be thinking way too much

You use a magnetic stick to place the bolt into the hole then cap the top after you torque it down

Your intake is being donated to soot now so he can learn how to make a manifold haha

So I have a couple of questions. What is the reason for the sand blasting and what did you use to weld it back together? also do you have any pics of it right after you cut it open? and did you have to drill the holes in the top out bigger?
