so todd you think with the standard t3/t4 it wouldnt be hard to hit 300?
just like the though of a water cooled turbo a little more and you are just doing the ram horn style for the new b right or is there a el option?
As for the ram horn/el question.....they are the same
Your current choices for the xB: SIMPLE log style or the BASIK el style..
Unless you want me to do something custom

Todd...someone on another thread asked me if the coating on the mani for any of your kits was available in white? I've only seen yours in black and polished, but I've seen some colors on some other kits.

I just stick with the stuff I have used before.

So Todd, I plan to get the simple, or basik kit in a couple months, but more likely in the summer. Is there a local discount for installation, for me and my buddy Hansel? Im guessing he has the gt kit or something, the kit JP had on his tc? ---Just outta curiousity.

It'll cost a lot more then having a muffler shop weld you a dump tube, that's for sure! 
Think about it, the dump tube (at least mine) goes all the way down to the bottom of the engine bay, and the WG only opens up at full boost, so you shoudl be going fast enought to blow that exhaust back out of your engine bay.
After I got my tube, my engine bay does not get the exhaust soot anymore. Your buddies kit's must not have well designed dump tubes on them.

Cool, that makes sense. The dump tubes on my friend's civics are really short (its custom and not well designed), so that must be the problem. I've changed my mind about it, dump tube ftw...
