OK, I see now that it's a wireless control to be able to open up the cutouts or close them. But what cutouts do they work with? When I install my headers, I would love to add cutouts at the same time.

if you guys are going for a 10year + design which i applaud for thinking quality what are you going to make them out of? 16ga 304 would be my first guess?
other thing that aftermarkets never seem to do but the OEM's do is bracing. a stock header like this s2000 piece pictured below has welded tube braces in place to prevent crack inducing flex
my eyes always perk up when a company talks about making a real, tested and quality piece from quality material

We are so close...everything is designed and built. We have some test cars in the shop, but have just been super busy with our Camaro headers. Now that the Camaro is finished, we have all of our attention back to the c5.

Are your C5 midpipes going to have a 2.5" or 3" outlet? I'm looking into catbacks/axlebacks right now and curious what would be compatible...

We've started building these. As soon as we have enough sets to stock our vendors, we will start shipping. Look for special introductory pricing with a pre-sale about 2 weeks from when we start shipping. Should be soon!
