I've heard that they do P & P for $80?

How do I go about getting this done?

Go check out there site: www.ardperformance.com

Plus I think a couple of peeps on the board work there.

That is NOT the website. They don't currently have a website.

email fastparts@advancedracingdynamics.com for details.

Only one person on the board works there. We just buy lots of things from them :-)

Hi Keanan,

My name is Trisha, i would like to welcome you to 2gnt and say also we are glad to have another TX 2gnter on our hands.. What part of TX are you from? Are you close to Houston? The whole port and polish of the intake manifold, is like this. You send us or bring us if you wanna save in shipping charges you manifold, hopefully you have a spare cause turnaround time is about a week. It is in fact 80 bucks plus tax since you are in TX... Let me know if you are interested in doing this or email us at the above email addy Dino gave you..

Thanks
Trisha

And by the way well worth the $80, I have mine done by them

Trisha, your quote definately fits... :-P

how much power do you get out of a P&P manifold?? Or, like a bored throttle body, do you just get increased responsiveness when NA?? tia

got mine done there also..very good work these guys do..and they're also gonna build my head =)

how much would it cost for shipping + taxes? Id like a more narrow price window...pleeeeaaaaassseeee?

PS
nice ride trish!

Brian you're not going to have to pay tax. With shipping you should be under $120. I don't remember exactly $80 for P&P and like $10 to $15 shipping each way...

hehe.. yeah should have my manifold ready this week, now just to get the car working again.. :-)

Hey Trisha,

Thanks for taking initiative to help me out. It seems that I need much information about how to take the manifold out. I e-mailed A.R.D.
already and asked for the same thing. Is there not a website for this comp.??

Thanks,
K spec

Do you guys check out the manifold on a flow bench when it is finished, or just kinda guess??? Do you get a gasket match job with the p&p???

For those of you that have had it done... have you done the egr blockoff mod to prevent things from gumming back up - or do you just let it build up in there? I guess for $80 you can't really go wrong either way?

One last question... How in the holy hell do you all ship things so freakin' cheap? I sent my TB to Howell and it was like $10-$15 sent UPS.

Thanks in advance for the replies.

I forgot to add this, my home town is houston. I go to college in tyler, and make trips home every 2 months or so. Is there a location in houston? My family lives in clear lake, if that helps.
WESTIMER RULES!!!!!!

Brian-
Michael is right, you dont pay taxes and shipping should be less or around $120.
P.S. Thanks
K-
A.R.D. is located off the beltway feeder going towards I-10.
and our website is being recreated as we speak, it should be up soon...

Timothy-
We do gasket match with the port and polish.

Thanks

Trisha, are you guys keeping a gasket set around now?

I bought new gaskets with mine, which you will need to. And then sent them with the manifold to be gasket matched.

No Michael, right now we dont have a gasket set, so yeah you would have to purchase a set of those. Btw Michael i like your new signature....your car is a pretty color ;-)

Eclipse148cel, which college do you go to, UT Tyler or TJC. I go to TJC. heres my email: crslaw21@aol.com

chris

So, we need to send a gasket with our manifold for you to gasket match it?



Eric Madden

yes, cause you'll have to put the gasket on anyways... you never want to reuse gaskets!! :)

oh really? how come ironically enough ARD used my same valve cover gasket on mine twice? hmmmmmmmmm?



(trisha i promise u i am not starting anyting...that is a serious question...cause i want to know how safe it is, or if i should consider changing it in the near future) But it is totally ironic, lmao.

do they port out the runners to or what.. i know you want everyhting with an even flow.. it will kill your rpm performance when you dump a bigger pipe into a smaller pipe... does anybody know if this would be a good first mod to start out with a cold air intake???

Hey Trisha,

I haven't heard back from anyone yet from the email i sent. I still have some questions for ya!

How much (in all) would it be if i just brought my car to the location near I-10, and had the P&P done there?

How long would it take?

Do ya'll do anything with throttle bodies?

Thanks,

K spec

From what I noticed when I did my manifold was that the car didn't hesitate to run right to the rev limit anymore. Before the power felt like it dropped off around 6000-6500 rpm but now I bounce off 7200 rpm because it's making power all the way to 7200, even when I was on stock cams!
