That's how I understand it, at least.
Exactly don't know why they didn't put reducers on the stepped ones (well at least the 1st set I tested)

PPE 370z LTH has reducers.

Nonetheless you guys will be happy with the added midrange and topend.

this is what I got no gaskets or bolts just a bag to extend the O2 sensors (unless they changed that). I would recommend new gaskets or make sure they are good for sure at the heads.

I had my engine replaced with new gaskets 2 months before my LTH install so mine were practically new.

Would be alot of work if you have a gasket leak there after your done installing these.

We have seven after terrasmak pays, Over half dropped out as it stands. If we don't get the order in on Tuesday another jig is going to be set up for another chassis and it's going to be an extensive wait. I know my client doesn't wait and he payed the extra money already... So let's cross our fingers everyone else can get funds together in time !
