        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

                                          wow really well said...especially coming from a competitor more or less...personally i think what you just said is what the scene needs(attitudewise)...i dunno if anyone else agrees with me or not but oh well

                                          At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!
