Only $310! A little bead blasting, should be good to go, right? And you get enough for two manifolds.

I would've said those were sitting outside on a salt and snow laden road in PA but WHAT the hell?! Look like they've been in an engine fire!

Looks like a fire. The little seals in there are probably toast.

Definitely an engine fire. I doubt anything nonmetallic survived.

What's the biggest challenge adapting ITBs to work with a turbo'd car?

I know the Pulsar GTI-R came factory that way... would be a cool project, down the road.
