Profab and RDL are the same thing. That's my choice. Currently running his manifolds, up pipes and pedestal.

I am kind of leaning towards profab also. I havent put my turbo on yet so I am wanting to do this at the same time if I do it.

I'm putting on the LML manifold this weekend! and after that just planning to eventually get the Profab upipes but leave the stock and LML Manifold, as I've heard the uppipes is where the actual gains come from.
