2G-specific Punishment Racing 2g IC Pipe Set

I purchased these about 3 months ago to use as a subsitute until I got my FMIC setup on my car. For the price they are very nice but also reflect their price a little bit. The piping is VERY thin and heatsoaks very quickly just idling in the garage with the hood down. The flange for the B.O.V. is very thin as well and you have to use a combo of gasket/RTV to get it to seal correctly. The fitment is very well for a 2g. I had a 1g head on my 2g block for a while and this will not work as the placement of the intake manifold causes the S-pipe to hit the thermostat housing. You can make it fit but you have to dent the pipe a little. As far as fitment goes it was a direct bolt-on affair. No problems with the LICP and the UICP fits very well as well. The flange at the TB is very inexpensive aluminum as well and will warp VERY easily. You have to use a combination of gasket/copper spray/RTV to get it to seal. For the price though you really can't beat them for the fitment. Possibly coating the IC pipes will help with the heatsoaking. I included a picture of it installed on my car and will get some soon off the car to show flanges and quality.
