How do the three sets (PPE/RDL/ATS) compare in price?

Does the PPE/RDL manifolds expand as they progress towards the rear like the ATS? How big are the flow paths in each?

Do all these bolt up to a stock turbo or stock turbo location?

really tim? I've sold and sell both. The ATS looked and fit very well. We had a set on the white LLY truck up at Scheid. We did however have to smash the DE downpipe quite a bit. We did Ricks, egr delete and the manifolds and up pipes at the same time but EGT's cruising dropped considerably and spool is much quicker. Yes these work with the stock turbos

My buddy had a set on his 2.6 truck... pretty hard running truck, the up pipes blew out so bad the 2nd or 3rd pass they were touching the fire wall, he talked to ATS and they blew him off so he has the stockers on now. You can just feel the up pipes are way too light for high hp...

damn now that's some hp..I can't believe ats wouldn't replace them or even look at them to see how they were messed up so they could improve them..

Thanks for the posts, I wasnt sure if ATS had released that as a new setup to remove the bellows or not, figured I'd ask. Im definately interested in them.
