Thread: Lynch's 6spd / VE-T thread

Most coating places are expensive. I have yet to find any cheap coating places in my area.They do a very good job tho.

i hear what your saying man, however im not a big fan of snickers, im sure theres plenty of people that could jump in an defend him but none of it will do any good.



yeah man im out of time and money, i gotta get my current manifold off an shipped to its new owner as soon as i can..

that mani does look great tho!

New manifold looks good man! Curious to see what the manifold swap will do without too much tuning and then with a full tune.

I can't wait to get mine! Looking forward to seein your numbers.

Since I'm waitin on a few things before i install the new manifold i took the chance to put my own little touches on it, there was a tiny bit of slag and a few spots where the side wall of the pipe stuck up a bit, not sure how much that'd effect flow but i figured since i had nothin else to do i'd fix it.






I also cleaned up the collector, it had some slag and some burnt metal shavings or something on it, def something i wouldn't want going through my turbo.



I'm not really sure how much it matters but the hole for the external gate was a bit small, so i enlarged it a bit and smoothed it out.




I've still gotta hit a couple sharp spots with sand paper or something and clean it up real good inside and out but I think it looks good and it should work great! I'm sure matt would of got all that had i not kinda rushed him to get it to me, and it might not even make any change at all but i got to put my own work into it to make it mine and not just throw cash at it an bolt it up so thats cool.

p.s sorry the pics suck as usual lol

nice love it

Nice, attention to details! good work

thanks guys, like i said im not sure if it'll even do any better then how it was.. but i can be pretty anal about shit sometimes and will definitely sleep better knowing that i did it lol.

i got everything ordered that i need (i fucking hope) i really really hope my turbo will let me use these m10x1.25 studs to hold it to the manifold.. i ordered new studs an copper locking nuts because thats what the flange requires.. im going to have to bore the gasket to match but thats not a big deal, i ordered a new one anyways..

heres some links to what i got..

Nice work Josh. Looking forward to seeing it all on the car.
