Substantially so.

On my ISF it was very near the gains from headers.

On the RCF with improved OEM header design I can see the delta being even closer

It's all coming together really nicely! Great work. The spacers really help with the stance. Going to have to look into a set of those.

Looks good Jeff, I spotted you driving downtown a couple weeks ago. What colour are you going with the ADVs?

I should have them back this week from powder!

I ordered all new bowls from ADV.1 due to the cracking issues I had with the last set.

The color is called Prismatic Powder copper penny topcoat; its going to go over the bead blasted raw forged aluminum. Hoping it turns out, I also ordered all new black hardware.

Car looks great!
By chance did I meet you outside the Stampede grounds on the weekend? I met another RCF owner with the Apexi exhaust walking his bulldog puppy...

Also, what did you use to coat the emblems or did you have them powdercoated?

Cheers

haha you did, see I wasn't joking about having the twin of your car.

The emblems are coated with plastic-dip, very very simple to do with everything still on the car.

I'm shocked people buy ADV wheels when a simple Google search tells all.

Too Funny, Car looks great. How do you like the RSR springs?

I have them sitting in my garage waiting for spring.
