I was thinking on selling this wheels, because of their to wider when I received them but I give it try , and I'm here now but if I have to spend more money to make them fit better not rub etc , I'm going to make the decision on selling the wheels.

Thinking wheels sell them because to wider once received but you try to give it chance but no work so you maybe sell thems.

That reminded me of those Nigerian scam emails... Or basically every scam email I've ever seen... LOL

If I know for sure it's a T25 flange, I'll buy that ******' thing next week because the crack on my OE manifold is getting longer and I don't want to be without the car yet again after putting the transmission in next week. Even if the thing lasts a few months and the welds crack, that's no problem because I'll weld the thing back together myself and reinforce it... Hell, I might finally give up on the MSP before then..
 
i'm pretty positive it's t2 flanged from looking at the pictures and with the angle of the flange it looks like a direct copy of the thunder. it even has that peak in the middle of the head flange.

I've never actually seen a thunder manifold... I searched and I'll be damned if it isn't a knock off! Yeah I LOL'd at that too...

i ran my wires thru my intake mani (under) you just have to get creative with it. the best way to hide wires though is to get a 1.8L coil pack kit and vc. otherwises youll have worked to hide every other wire and still have the ugly coil packs on the VC

I was looking through your build thread which is what prompted this.
I've actually got about 100 questions for you now because I liked a lot of the things you did that don't necessarily cost money, but dramatically improve the appearance under the hood. I whish I had spent more time wire wheeling other components. I wire wheeled my intake manifold, but ended up using another one. What's the advantage to the 1.8 coil pack conversion?

There's not any performance gains really. its just quicker to work with and looks 100 times better and relocates the wires from on top of the VC to the front side. Wire wheels are great, I hand sanded mine from 100-150-400-1000-red polish compound-white polish compound. 3 days total
 
Carbon fiber is ordered. Just have to decide what to make first. Hmmmmmmm...
Either a lip kit for the 2 or fenders and door skins for the MSP :)
