Andreas, your always build cool stuff....

since the rings are reuseable correct?

How much for just the gaskets in case I do a head swap?

Careful with the white tape. It likes to stay on after a while.
I always thought it was good to have some intake length. From what i have read you can gain a lot with a boosted application by getting a GOOD intake setup (nice even air distribution and the correct intake length from p[lenum to heads). Also been told that boosted engines actually behave like NA units but with a higher density air charge. so the same priniplys that work for NA motors should translate to boosted motors (on the cold side).

Chris.
