So its a bellmouth design? Why is it that its not divided like the IX or VIII. Sorry for the dumb question just curious as to why Mitsu changed it. Being thats its twin scroll I though it was better being a divided housing...is there an advantage to this design? Btw those welds by hand are just sickening...I dont see how somebody can be so skilled...dare I say it rivals robots???

That is all by hand!!!!

Chris Nielsen is one of our extremely talented welders. This is his work. I am sure he will appreciate your comments.

Welds are one of the things I look at first when looking at products not produced at AMS. Makes me feel so good about working here

dyno numbers and some prices, would be great if this could be available in a few weeks, I think alot of us here are looking at the exhuast upgrade, and it would be great to do the entire pack at one time.

great work.

thanks .

I cant believe that we didnt weigh the parts!!!! LOL.

Keep in mind that this is a test piece and not a production part yet. We also need to see if it improves power over the stock piece.
