Don't buy a kit ... big waste of MONEY!

i bit the bullet, and bought the kit from eric at m50manifold.com. there was a group buy special on BFC, cost is $205 including the fuel rail cover and shipping.

Make your own kit! When we did my install, it cost a big $60 in hardware.

Sams cost even less, i think we were sub $40 or right around there. If you need the monifold get one at a junkyard or of bf.c they usually go from around 60-100ish

hey man, would you have time to help out with the install?

thanks!

The M50 install kit arrived yesterday, anyone want to help out with the install?

When are you thinking of doing it? Do you have tools and space to do it at your place? I haven't done the intake manifold on an S50/S52 (mine came with the correct manifold ), but if I have the time free I'd be happy to help.

I was thinking Saturday 8/15, i have some tools and a garage.

Actually, I'm likely going to be at the DIY at Passport on the 15th. But I'm going mainly to help out, and likely won't be working on my own car. Could be a good time/place to do it.

i'll check with the DIY coordinator and see if they're ok with the manifold swap.
