I hope to gain about 15-20rwhp with these. The sound should also improve. I was hoping ARE could squeeze me in on Monday but it looks like I'll be waiting a bit longer :( He's pretty slammed right now. As soon as I have hard data you guys will be the first to know.

No not really. I am not a good estimator of weight but I'd say ~ 15lbs each. Much lighter than the manifolds for sure.

Joe,

I don't know why some tuners don't jet coat their headers. I had my Belangers jet coated and noticed a difference in engine bay heat from stock. I don't think coating is a matter of durability...it is a matter of keeping the heat within the header.

I Was supposed to go today for the install but ARE is slammed. MattG is setting up a new date (cough, cough). As soon as I have numbers you guys will know about them. I want them in too. Everytime I go to my garage I have to look at them.

I guess it's pretty easy but to be honest I don't know. I plan to get a full report from ARE on the difficulty of the install.

I only have a blackwing other than that it's stock. I plan to keep the factory titanium exhaust. Any of the others (aside from Corsa Ti) will add weight.
