I have a guy doing some for me locally. Depends on how long you can go without your car running, hes looking at 3-4 working days turnaround and then shipping, so maybe a week total? Hes giving me flow numbers as well. Ill let you know.

I would go TEA and expect another 20>25 rwhp on a stage 1.
Cost ~ 950>1000

Thats a pretty damn quick turn around. He must have had an open schedule.

And you get to keep very good PTV, along with huge low and mid lift gains.
