TRD intake.

No drone, plenty of power.

Header has been on the car, uncoated, unwrapped, for 60k+ miles of daily, AX, and track use.

No issues.



Does Nameless make a better product?
Yes. Higher quality materials.
Welds are the same quality however.

Is the Nameless three times better?
No.
Is there a justification for Nameless to sell out to Cosworth and allow their product to be offered for $2k?
No.

Would I have purchased the Nameless header if it had been offered at a different price?
Yes.

I could justify spending $800 or so on the header, just like I justified spending $850 on their OP/FP. However, $1200 is not justified, and because they had sold out to Cosworth by the time I was looking at headers, I sure as hell couldn't justify spending what they want for it.

PLM is only cheaper because they steal the designs from the companies that put the R&D dollars into the original product...
