Holy ****....that's horrible to hear about your last few engines.
What failed on your previous motors?
What size/type pistons are you using on this current build?

Some douchebag named Ryan McMakin aka Rynomoto on nasioc built the first one after the notorious 07 STi piston ring problem happened to my car. He is out in Tyler, TX. He then rebuilt the 2nd one and the third one. It will take me a while to explain why I went back to him but basically he covered the second one with his own money and the third one I only paid for parts. After the 3rd one went this was around the same time so did all his other ones and we realized he was full of ****.
The last one was machined and assembled by AMS (Automotive Machine and Supply) out in Fort Worth, Texas.
My car has not been running for the last 3 years and I have only owned it for 4. The last 3 years of my life have been a total and complete nightmare.

I enjoyed my drive back home to SF very much, after babying it for about two weeks.
Looking forward to the next visit to install oil catchcan / header / fmic / oil cooler whichever you will have!!!

Thanks!
These are now for sale at $250 including gaskets.
One part that you guys may not see from the picture, is the double slip joint. Instead of a regular slip joint that usually leaks, we utilize a unique double slip joint. This design incorporates two sleeves on one side of the pipe, and the other side slides in between them. This ensures a tight fit with no leaks while still allowing for thermal expansion and ease of install.
The other major benefit is the fact that this pipe fits perfectly into the stock heat shield. This keeps under hood temps down, keeps spoolup consistent due to excellent heat retention, and of course keeps things looking factory and stealthy.
