Brian & Sean,

*I* think the Feal coilovers with 6kg & 4kg rate would be an good all round coilover. Already many coilovers with stiffer springs.

Brian, with all do respect why polish the SS header when after the install you can't see 7/8's of the header and it turns brown after time. An brushed finish would be great an less labor intensive. I have a friend that owns an polishing shop so I know the labor of polishing!
I had PPE coat my RS max header and OEM mid pipe in black because I have seen the polished coating turn to a chalky finish.

Regards,
AZ

Yep, the polish adds no performance value, and does add costs. And yet, if we sell it raw the sales are much lower. Been there, done that, people want it to arrive pretty...even if it costs more.

you mentioned repining the intake from the 2.0 to the 2.5 earlier in the thread, how would one go about doing that.
what kinda difference will that make vs just port matching the intake to the head by removing material?

Hmm,
I guess I'm must not be that vain because I would rather save the money of polishing! I'm guessing the polishing adds about $75 or more to each header. I really like the black ceramic coating for the looks and the heat retention in the exhaust system.
I can see polishing for muffins and tips.
