Well if you wanted to go big power further down the line then it would be advisable to do it (as the head is off) but it aint cheap:tiff:

Its quite a time consuming job that takes a lot of skill,it takes me a bout 3 or so days to get one right, even moreso if the manifold require matching but you cant just attack it and hope for the best! It is satisfying though once its done and that graph shows you all your hard work was worth it!:top:
