I was hoping these were the long discussed Fleabay headers as they are awfully sexy.... I have concidered purchasing a set as it sounds like they are finally coming arond to being a worthwhile product...

Negative, after talking to Nick @ ARH he explained to me that it isn't necessary. I read about the pro's and con's. I am thinking about wrapping my X pipe though to keep my interior cooler.

Congrats, I also am running AR headers. They sound great.

Are you going for a tune after? Who do plan to use down in LA?
