    The casting on that MTM one looks just as rough as the Dahlback too.
    looks worse than carstens

      Carstens ones are very clean and the casting is top notch! At least my one is.

          That was my first comment when I saw Bo's Wagner IM. The casting is really good.

                      To spend much money for paint and engraving is not even worth it. But to let it go through a machinery to fix different problems it is worth it. I never installed the IM from Wagner without doing intensive work on it. This work is much better, than to realize, that you installed something you need to take back out. Finally i decided to do the "corrections" on the raw piece by myself. Last time i was about to shoot someone 1 day before a delivery of the car to the customer. Now i know the "weak and poor" places on the IM and i do not sell it like i get it anymore.

                            I am surprised to read that the Wagner IM still requires a lot of work to make it more efficient. I thought Carsten already made the internal cast surface smooth, before shipment. The price would at least indicate it would be optimized. Can you share with us the points inside the IM that would need extra attention?

                                I posted the problems directly to the people. The IM is an amazing product, never said something against it. But it needs work for perfectionists. Ruff people might keep it like it is, not me. Don´t always make everything bad. I would and will recommend this product to any 5cylinderT driver. I am happy that someone makes this amazing part.

                                Compared to so many others i also spend time in testing and measuring the different results of the products. I have clear numbers compared with a Standard RS2 and a Wagner IM Converted RS2. Trust me, the thing works. All the rumors are really BS.
