Shearer offers the Tial 44mm wastegate as an alternative, although it's not necessary if you're using the "smaller" turbos. If you look at the SS tubular Buschur header kits, those have Tial 44mm wastegates on the collector. Shearer makes them for Buschur. He also offers a 3" O2 housing with that combination. I've got one sitting right here. It's beautiful welding, made by the Ron Shearer "robot".

LIFETIME WARRANTY is a good thing.

Lifetime warranty is important, anything has a chance of cracking...especially thinner gauge steel.

AFI... another company with a SICK manifold. Any numbers on your kit(s) yet?

Also, +1 on VIPGarage... another sick kit. And they're currently working on an externally gated ET50trim kit.

^ We have no info on Buschur's 50trim yet other than they have one.

Buschur is a given though... they've never let us down.

For those that like our kit but do not have the money to blow or do not want the full blown ordeal, we'll be releasing a budget version of our kit soon.

Details to come shortly, hopefully after the weekend.

Just an FYI since its not yet publicized-we port all on the turbine housings for our kits in house, to insure proper waste flow, and thus solid boost control with as little or no creep as possible.
