Well, after A LONG TIME of reading lol I found a lot of useful info about OFI. Some good and some bad which is exected from all turbo companies at times but I'm curious as to if he screwed you over, why would you order headers from him again as I found in this https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...=842903&page=6 ??
It looks to me as though he makes an awesome kit and I took a chance with his company and so far I'm happy. Only time and installation will tell

I took a 50% loss on the kit I had to basicly give the thing away.
LOL I saw some boxes last time I was up at the shop on Sat. They were working on that promod S10. I might stop by there shortly.
Simple fix is a new header drivers side header. The major issue with the kit is the hotside charge its 1 1/2 or 2" charge. Its giving you back pressure like a ****.
I wasn't getting into it with you btw, but now I am. How about you offer constructive advice on him how to weld since you are the expert instead of just saying "learn how to weld".

Much easier for me to get a set of said headers ship them to Thailand and have those ******* mass produce them and quality and fitment is flawless.

Joel was a little late with my kit but gave me a coating discount for compensation so i am satisfied with that. I never received (as I was told by Joel that I would) whatever is needed to run a/c with his radiator....I think it is a custom condenser. That part I am not satisfied about. Apparently more recent customers can use a/c with the kit he supplies so maybe this has been corrected.
The kit has performed well on my car and has not had any cracks in the welds so far. The kit needed a few tweaks here and there but I expected that...nothing major. So I would recommend the kit if the a/c works without hacking the core support like i had to. The kit does make great efficient power.

I have the kit, came on time and fits on a mock up engine so far. Will have more info soon on the rest of the fitting when I get the new engine in the car. I was more interested in a race kit, don't want AC, but can still use it if I wanted, that is unless Joel can make me that 5" DP that exits the passenger side. BTW, the turbo barely beat the arrival of my kit from Joel and I am realizing anything turbo related is slow as **** getting to you for the most part.
