TPIS LT's Installed...Loooookin' Good!
:seeya: Well I took the plunge and invested in a set of the TPIS Long Tube Headers offered by The LAPD in our CF mall.Got a great deal and we installed them yesterday on 2001 coupe.They look great!:yesnod:
Install took a little longer then anticipated but I can tell you I'm glad there in.I've got some neat install pics ,but I'm having touble uploading them to the file manager in our CF homepage, I don'tknow why yet. I'll figure it out soon and post A.S.A.P.
From 3000 rpms they really make a difference...Really make a difference. I feel the revs come up much quicker.They are a little louder than before, but with the Corsa's really not bad. No resonance and sounds downright mean and nasty at 4-6K.Here's a pic of engine bay.

Vince,
That's great, I would love to stop by in the next couple of weeks to get a ride now....that may be my next mod as well if I like yours.
Would I need a PCM reprogram for the new headers?

Doug, You shouldn't need a new program just for headers. The car idles the same,just a little more clarity in tone.The revs come sooner.
How you make out with your hood and rear fascia?

Vince,
I ordered the SW rear fascia, should be here in a week and a half, I am not getting the hood for now though.
