Got my intake right here!

It happens that I came to San Francisco for the thanks giving.... So I contact Leo from WR and he was knd enough to give me my Intake this afternoon...! Looks sweet.

Don't askme anything about the performance... cause I won't be installing it untill a few weeks from now...

But one thing I can tell you: Leo is the coolest guy! He took me around the shop and showme a lot of the WR's stuff, new parts and dyno test comparisons from several cars... Did I mention new parts?? They are cooking a rear strut bar for the Yar...

WR for sure does it's homework... great quality parts, supported by solid R&D (dyno testing).

Bad news regarding the new headers... The shop is packed with lots of work... so Leo doesn't think it will be ready for another month or two.

Maybe if they see more interest on the header (demand)... they will speed up the production... So keep PM Leo. It's all about the $$$

Not to cause any trouble, but I think that all the guys in the GB for the Megan Racing header, should have waited I little more. Leo show the prototype and some preliminary numbers and I can tell you that really worth the extra $$$
