Just wanted to touch base once again on the whole cosworth plenum. I received the plenum for free from another member on here because I had sold him a bodykit and it went almost 6 months with out hearing back from him and I did the right thing. So who isn't going to play with a free toy ? I tend to be higher in the rpm range as well during events "hill climbs" and I'm happy with it, it's much better then stock. Not saying I'm not going to be switching to MD setup but I figured it was definitely worth toying around with.

Now I fully understand about the need for cams but I am currently seeing what I can get out of a stock de. After that I will move forward with installing my Kelfords.

Alright, the Group buy price is going to vary, the more people we get the better price we can do on price. As of right now plan on the 1,100.00 plus shipping coated and then if we get 5 guy's the price will drop.

What kind of gains did you see with the PPEs? Compared to stock or shorty headers + test pipes?

I may be in depending on the GB price.

I'm just wondering if I read this correctly... The non stepped 1 3/4 version keeps the low end torque like the ART pipes but also increases top end? I'd be down for a set... Let's get that price below $900 coated

I'm definitely down, but i will be out of the country until the 26th. If we can extend it until then, put me down.

I suggest cross posting this as a thread back on g35driver. I know a lot of us are interested.

yep, thats pretty much it! they are awesome. 900 seems reasonable i suppose, but ill take what i can get. here is the thing, if you want the gb to happen though you have got to commit... otherwise, they will be $1100 when you finally do decide to get them. so hop in that #3 spot and lets get this rolling!

i already referenced this link on the g35 driver thread about the ppe headers.

there isnt a tentative date on the GB yet, but lets just say end of the month for now. i had planned on ordering my set friday, but now it looks like the GB might actually happen. so that said, we will definitely wait on you. are you for sure you are in 100%? if so ill add you to the list!

TheSyn3rgist and Massios, fill in 4 & 5!!! then we have 5 as of today, will have a firm grip on the 5 person GB price and perhaps a 10 person price. Then we have a good chance of getting 10 by the end of the month!

how many on G35driver ar in?

$900-$1000 would rock for this setup comparing the price for quality test pipes/headers!

I think a 900 price point would be "money"
