Locals who've been able to get ahold of the Cartuning manifolds really like them. The #6 plug apparently needs changing from underneath, so you might wish to change them now, and order some heat socks for the plug wires.
How much does the trans spacer run?

I've never heard about #6 plug but I shall find out. The spacer if I remember right was $250-300 but I don't remember for sure because I got all this at once so I just ask for a total lol

From a local on OQCGP:
The Cartuning manifolds touch the boots in a few places so i have the metal boot protectors on and some heat shield silicone boots. #1 is the worst and #6 is impossible to get to from under the hood. I have to go under the car to swap the plug (its much fun)

This is good to know. I'll be buying some boot protectors that are made out of that header wrap material from dei then my trans is removed now be cause I just rebuilt it so all of my install will be from under neath I guess I got lucky on this one!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $Sweet!! Sky's the limit build - that's awesome! Yours really is the one to make all the Monte's proud! Really does keep the dreams alive, y'know?

You sucker John, your just not letting up! ROFL, very nice new parts for Turbo Monte. I can see the addiction you speak of. Those are definitely some bad azz manifolds for sure. What is the flange coming up from one of the manifolds, wastegate?
See you did do the water methanol, smart move when your going to where your going with the power. I like!! CoolingMist is the brand I run too, they are just so state of the art. Wise choice, wish I had the newer version like you have you dog!
Best of luck in getting your Monte back together, if any one can do it I don't doubt you can, going to be an awesome build
Matt ended up fabricating a brace for the tranny filter as with the pan extension on Sam's Monte it would pop out of the tube insert point and would lose line pressure or something like that. So with Sam's and mine he fabricated a brace using existing holes inside the pan to keep the filter in it's place under extreme levels power.
NICE!!! Very nice!!!
