Just got my new MK1 hardpipe and blowoff valve. Anyway here she is. install took a little longer then I thought it would, about an hour and 20. I had to re-route turbo coolant line and fuel vac line.

| Ya should have had it powder coated before you put it on. You should at least get that valve cover done anyway. |

I thought about it. I think I am going to go all Chrome. Its cheaper that way, and this dude is on a budget! I am bidding on a nice polished valve cover on ebay. Then I will get MKI air can to turbo and turbo to intercooler chrome pipe. Should look good when I am done. |

Is this not chrome enough for ya? Powder coating will also reduce temp. keeping cold air in/ hot air out & the opposite.

I have no idea. If there was, & if they shipped & recieved parts to coat, I would do that. I do not have a
Tulsa Yellow Pages to do a search.
....then again, I do have the internet....
DAMN, I'm dumb! I think I'll go do a search. |

I think we just "pirated" his thread,
Sorry man, didn't mean to.
Yellow Pages site had no links that worked.  |
