  • We look back on the couple of weeks leading up to the Cresta's first ever 8 second pass including fire proofing & running it on the dyno. We then take it to the docks where it will be shipped off to the USA. There's high hopes for the Cresta & it's new setup this year.
    BRING ON DRAGWEEK 2019!
    Benny's Custom Works brings you everything automotive!
    Weekly Episodes right here on UA-cam, as well as the shop with new & used performance parts for most Japanese makes and models.

    Quick Tip. Wet the heat wrap when putting on the exhaust. Won’t get as much fibres on your hands/gloves and it shrinks when it dries for a tighter neater fit 👌🏼👍🏼👍🏼

My Mate here in the US does "custom" blankets for turbo's, header's or manifold's & all hot pipe's from three layer quilted silica fabrics for any application. The stuff is so good you can hold your hand on it right after a dyno pull & it feels like warm laundry. He ships his shit all over the world & the company name is Turbo Performance Products.

Saves cutting your hands to bits next time your there.
