This, waiting to get mine back, it cost 170$ total. That was buying a old stock manifold shipping it off to get it honed ext, and getting it ceramic coated.

Mind sharing where you're getting it done that cheap? GetHoned wants over $600 for a 6-cylinder exhaust manifold!

As much as I like Extrude Hone, even i'll admit to their pricing getting rediculous since they started. Any other options would be great knoweldge to have

I'll convert you. Sell that fancy thing to some aspiring drift kid, and join the bandwagon!

I would go external on my setup, but the added bling would increase the chances of getting sent to the state ref; on the rare chance I drive my car around.

It's cool.

Boost creep gives me a sweet adrenaline rush.

Maybe I'll port the flapper out and toss the tomei gate on it.

Let me know how that one works, I gave up trying after the Garrett, the HKS, the other Garrett, and the Forge all blew on me. Yay.

Boost creep is kinda cool, keeps ya in check though for sure. Amazing how so many idiots stay in it, thinking there car is running 'better' when it's really on the verge of kicking a rod haha.
