A lot..Easily over 5k. My kit is coming in tomorrow, but I won't be near those numbers, haha. Good job though, love to see people pushing the bk2, it has good potential.
I was thinking the same thing about the manifold...but I have heard some stories about cracking due to wrapping it. I'm about to install my set up tomorrow, basically the same kit as this and was contemplating on whether to wrap or not...really don't know any local companies around here that ceramic coat..and if there are, never heard anything about quality wise..and since I'm moving soon, don't really have time to send my manifold in as this is my dd. lol
A manifold will not crack because it is wrapped. A manifold will crack because it is junk lol, wrapped or not. You should always wrap it, for the sake of everything around it. Stuff will start to melt.
In addition, fire sleeving should be used on any rubber lines, as well as any wiring near or around the turbo/manifold.
Alright, sweet. Thanks skidz. That's why I went with a good name manifold. I appreciate the info. Since we are on the subject, are wraps basically all the same, or are there good ones v.s. cheap ones like from ebay? Don't really know anything about wrap quality.
We havent seen any instances of the manifolds cracking other than those few times early on
But we werent about to take a chance and see if itll happen on a customers car
What work is required to do to the head to get the Tomei PonCams? I know you need to do some serious work to get the procams to work, but wasn't sure on the PonCams.
According to Tomei, for the Poncams, upgraded springs are NOT required.
However, we noticed on our shop car, once you start exceeding 450whp, the springs start to float. We ended up with a bent valve after a year. So this customer wanted cams so we went ahead with upgraded springs and valves for added reliability.
Had a buddy looking to see what Poncams can do
