they're cheaper than the AR Bomb Proof gaskets and just as good from many testimonials on this site. I went with the AR gasket set, but if I had it to do over again I'd get the oem replacements.

Get them. You'll love the difference in performance and sound. And if your under 82k waste gate rattle is covered and knauz is cool with mods

no, only #6 and the accompanying hardware (if don't want to use the existing hardware).

not to hijack but could someone point me to a dyno comparison of stock vs. aftermarket dps?i have read more /better turbo spooling ,quicker response, and the hp gains are comparable to a good e85 mix. don't get me wrong these are all good improvements but would like to see independent dyno .before and after.

Downpipes mated with a tune can yield about 20WHP on top of the gains from the tune. (maybe even a little more). |
