    Default EOI: Fabrication of custom parts

    Just wondering what parts, if any, would you guys be interested in me fabricating?

    I'm going to do a FMIC kit, similar to "Racebitz", SRI with box and a CAI to the same box, Turbo manifold (to replace the factory one) I can see a slight design flaw in the cast one, Custom catch can setup and underbody/internal bracing. Anything else that might interest you? Let me know. Thanks, Troy.

    Pics of work I have done (to show the quality of my fabrication):

    Commodore intake, Power steering tank and radiator overflow tank in alloy.


    Custom SS headers.

    Totally agree!! But I know it would be a lot more expensive that way since there would be a lot more work.

    I reckon anyone with the tools and some basic shop skills could make one...but I want mine all pretty like that one . I believe the current info is that Cobb have stopped working on it for some reason. If I recall correctly, they had some info about the difference in IATs (or maybe BATs) and it was something pretty good like 20-40 degrees F.

    Anybody want to be the guinnea pig? I think you must have a DashHawk, so I can accumulate data from before and after the install. All you pay is the material cost. Free labour in otherwords. Anyone interested? I don't have a DH yet, so, its pointless me doing it for my car, I'll make it in my car, but fit it to yours. Don't all PM me at once.
