MaidenVR6 26 Posted August 13, 2013 Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Ive ordered most off my parts from Usa. Quick shipping to Norway, and the prices are often much better than Europe. Got my ARP headbolts from Summit back in 2007, and i still run them. USP motorsport have very quick shipping. Last time it took 4 days. Fluidampr. Link to post Share on other sites
