Made a world of difference to under bonnet temps of my Foz, worth every cent.
Headers and new up pipe are not fitted. If I only do them I can drop the car off to race torque and pick it up with them fitted and retuned on the same day.

If I do the turbo housing and dump as well then either I have to disassemble it all myself ( the re assembly is probably a bit more than I am keen to give a go ) or leave the car with them for a week or two while I get everything coated.

If the headers need pre fitting before coating then I will probably end up doing the lot but hoping that I won't need to.

The heat shield is still keeping the VF43 company. Havent opened that box in 18 months
