The first stainless steel headers arrived last week and were trial fit on my car. Being as these were the first ones put together there were some minor adjustments that Lou and team wanted done to them so they were shipped back late last week. They should be back either today or tomorrow at which point we will have dyno numbers for them on my car. Also it's worth mentioning that these headers are using a more conventional collector vs. the merge collector that was tested on them before. We will have dyno results from my car with the stock exhaust manifolds, the stainless headers with a normal collector, the headers with a merge collector, and *maybe* TPIS headers. The pricing has not been completely finalized, but Lou is still on target with the end of the year production time of the first batch - about 2-3 weeks out. Due to cost of the merge collectors Lou will be offering the headers with a standard collector and the merge collector (these collectors are over 500 dollars) will be an option. Currently the regular cost of the stainless steel headers is in the ball park of 1595.00, but has not been absolutely finalized. In the next few weeks as production of the headers ramp up, Lou (or me on his behalf) will post final pricing and or Group Purchase pricing for the headers. So keep tuned and I'll be posting the new dyno graphs very soon. :cheers:

Jeremy, is your ride stock.......or highly modded??.
I HOPE, we get to see the baseline #'s, so a TRUE before and after can be done.........
I really get tired of seeing NEW mods, and they are put on cars that already are off the planet............
Giving US regular Joe's no baseline.................thanks :)

Will you be testing with or without cats? I know my plan is to run with cats, so if you can get those numbers, it'd be great.

Thanks again for taking the time to keep us all updated.

Collin

I think my correct reflects the typical forum members cars - just a few bolt-ons. I have a Corsa catback, a Vortex/Powerduct, and a descreened MAF - that's it. No other mods have been done to the car since the testing began, and < 100 miles (a few two and from trips to the shop) have put on the car.

The setups being made now are the offroad versions without cats - just a big nasty x-pipe. Obviously the front cats will never be able to go back on, but Lou will work on a proviosion for cats as an option next.
