What is Joe working on? Call me a Ricer, but I'm probably going with INNOVATE so I can get that Twin screw whine. Only reason I want it. I want people to no My baby is packing a 1-2 punch.

I don't think the Takedas had any issues
I've noticed some weird behavior at the (Airaid) intake since I did the overpipe. Like a popping/burping noise every now and then. Not any bog or power loss though. Makes me wonder about the Airaid cause I have seen a few of them go up for sale past few weeks/months. Seems like if they have a prob with their tube design they should make it right for us with some sort of fix. Their reputation is at stake if there are a lot of complaints! So, are you considering a Takeda now? I'm with @Ocho-Seis...not so sure about any of these intakes anymore...might go with just a premium panel in the stock housing if none of the CAIs are any good. Money down the drain $uck$.

Joe is doing the Twin screw setup. But I am going to wait until I get out and have a big boy job.

We are going to offer the innovate/ sprintex sc set up. We are a long time innovate distributor, besides, this is the only set up I, as an engineer, think is oem quality. They look factory, and the quality is top notch.

Only other fi set up I have seen that impresses me is D3s turbo kit.

Btw, I will have a gb for these soon, along with the ppe headers

Good deal!

I went ahead and ordered 10 sets, and they will be here about the third week in January. If anybody wants a set, let me know ahead of time, and you can pre pick which ceramic coating you want

If it's just black or Grey ill go with black. If we can do something ridiculous I may change that.

Just want to say hi. Received my Raven FR-S A/T last week. Hope to see some other 86's around. You can find me around the medical center most of the time. Maybe one day I can meet up with you guys. I read through some but not all of the thread; looks like you guys are a fun bunch.

By the way, anyone know of an Argenta FR-S at UTHSCSA? Or a Raven FR-S at Children's Hospital of San Antonio?
