    Titanium valves for the 7M

    Titanium valves for the 7M

    Not getting offended at all lol , I'm actually learning something new thanks to you guys. The way I thought of it was that these valves you can rev up to 20k rpm and not worry about valve float for hours at a time, so it would make me think that these are very durable and light weight. Which...

    Titanium valves for the 7M

    Reason i say that is because everyone seems too against it. So for 1k you wouldnt want Ti valves, Ti retainers and Ti keepers?, i know i would. So why offer another product that noone makes for the 7m and the jz series

    Titanium valves for the 7M

    With the valve being cut 4 angles, it would have the corners the intake wants, i would say more efficient than stock, also if you include a nice port/polish, i dont see where this would be a waste of money! Buying stainless steel is a waste in my opinion when you can get titanium for just as...
