Just browsing ebay and found this:

Why do people advertise things as something they are not? i fail to see how this is a stage 3 head when the guides havent been flushed and exhaust ports are still the standard shape???

Looks pretty much standard to me, a recent skim and thats about it, cant really compare it to that beast you've had done as that thing is gonna flow some air

Well that's what I thought mines had the guides flushed off and are properly flowed and ported out to match the cometic exhaust gasket? Makes no sense to me £400 he's having a laugh!!!

this is why people reckon they have such high power figures then get beaten easily.

Because the poor sod thats going to buy that will tell all his mates his running a stg 3 head and his car should be a certain bhp.

when in reality it isnt.

Shocking!
