does anyone have pics of the bronze coated manifold after being run to see if it bakes off the coloring or what it does?

If you can find the thread for the 2nd group buy there are pics of the mani on my car. I tried to find a link for you but for some reason I can never search the vendor forum.
If that doesn't work here's a pic of mine after about 1500 miles.

I'm in on this one for a not coated one. When does payment need to be made?(how long does the group buy last)
Will OEM style turbo to mani bolts work fine?

You need two OEM turbo bolts and two OEM o2 housing bolts. In essence, two long bolts and two short bolts.

Is it true that this manifold was built for the new FP turbos and that a evoIII would have slower spool with this larger manifold? I want one but it needs to help performance and not just look badass. If anyone has switched from a 2g or evoIII manifold and is running a smaller turbo like the evoIII, please tell me this is not the case.
Thanks,
Brent W.

Has anyone running this seen any break-up of the ceramic coating? Reason I ask Is I would like to make sure my turbo does not get particles in it after extreme heat. I have heard some stories.
