There has been a halt in companies making tinware for 914/6. I have heard talk of production starting up from a few companies and would like to know what the latest information is.
Who is making them and when/where will they be available? |

The only game in town is RD and it is absolutely wonderful.. I will be making a similar setup to GPR sheet metal for CSOBs like me after the 1st of the year Patrick is said to be working on a set though of there own but imagine their prices will exceed the RD sets.. Even though I will be making my own sets to sell with my heat exchangers,tanks, mufflers, oil line kits, the best is the RD setup as it is better then oem in material quality and looks just like oem.. My sets will be much less expensive but again will not be a competitive option when compared to RD as thats like comparing a prius to a porsche both will get you from a-b but one looks so much nicer. |

But if I can get a 3.6 for my flared car, I will use your tin since it will need to be modified anyway. |
