    Hope you have some better customer service on it.

    "I ordered the 3" intake pipe, 2.5" uicp, 2.5" throttle body elbow, and the hoses/clamps/gaskets/ect. from www.straightlinespecialties.com. ALL I GOT WAS THE INTAKE PIPE, UICP, AND HOPSES/CLAMPS. NO TB ELBOW IN SIGHT! I emailed Nick from SLS and he said he'll get it to me ASAP. It's been over two months now and NO TB ELBOW + GASKETS! Over the past two months he didn't even return my emails! I have heard nothing from them since! DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH STRAIGHTLINESPECIALTIES.COM!!!!!!!!!!!"

      This is new to me. Only complaint i've ever heard of. Although we did have a period where our e-mail was down and nobody new about it and we had 80 e-mails built up, Jim can verify this.

            i think your just mad because your car is slow and i read the link that chuck put up about this complant and it did't look anything close to what you have written. I've know people that have done business with SLS and they have been happy with what they got done. And when i get a car worth modding i would galdly do business with Kevin and Nick. my .02

              heh, look at the dates. 2001, 2003.

              I think SLS is a lil more advanced then what they were once.

                  Ok, here's my take on it:

                  Nick's not going to just take somebody's money and run with it. Bad business, and it doesn't happen. Here's one kid who's disgruntled, if nobody knew about it over at SLS and he claimed he called a bunch of times, somethings fishy there...

                    Site looks really good, things definetly are moving in the right direction for ya guys. Not to start anything, but whats equal about this. I know length doesnt matter as much in turbo cars, but there looks like a couple inchs difference. Looks awsome anyways, welding looks really good.

                      It's not equal length to the exact inch. Im just using it for a pic right now. I got another design. Although a lot of equal length designs technically aren't equal. The most known would be the ramhorn style which is advertised as an equal length but runners 2 and 3 would definatly be shorter.

                        Reasoning why i dont have pricing and details up yet. These manifolds are not the final product, they are mock up for design/fitment factor. Only ones that will stay the same is the standard log and the little shorty log.

                          I was just curious, can't wait to see a final mockup. Lord knows I will be needing another manifold after awhile. Maybe an SLS? 🙂

                              I have had a good experience with SLS. They have answered all my e-mails and every time I come in they are willing to listen to my dreaming (lol) and offer advice.

                                      Oh, I dunno? Stock Evo manifolds need to be replaced if your going to use a different turbo setup then the twin scroll 16g that comes with it

                                      edit: looked at his mods again, he's got a DNP header, but i'm assuming its flanged for the stock turbo
