I was saving up for a beams until this caught my eye.
is this any good, it seems cheap and since theres more parts available for this engine than a beams.

You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.

Not if you get a Blitz K1-380V which is a bolt-on upgrade to the CT26/CT20b wink.gif

thing is, the 4th gen 3sgte manifold is PART of the turbo exhaust housing.
theres nothing to unbolt and bolt that to.
again, you need to replace the factory manifold 1st. wink.gif
