Am told he has units in stock so I suspect he increased his order in anticipation.

Do you have to pull the injectors when swapping to a billet version or to the VTT cast cover?

I can give you a better answer sometime this week when the rest of my parts come in. I'm doing new injector seals, coils, plugs since everything is coming out.

Or @m18performance can give you the official answer
Cast Aluminum is more brittle than billet extra material is needed for support to the flange. There would be no point with going cast aluminum cover that would crack over time or during shipping.

So did anyone else get around to installing this ? If I were to buy the pcv filter and plug can I run that for a while without breaking stuff until I run a dual catch can setup ? I received mine 2 days ago and will be a while until I get the m18 shaved and then powdercoat it... meanwhile I'll be on the lookout for a dual catch can setup. Is it a problem if I run everything with AN hoses ?
