He had special pricing to the first 10 or 20 buyers I think, I dont think he wants the prices posted so just give him an e-mail or a call - great people to deal with. I dont know if its over or not yet either..

We have about 5 ro 6 slots left for our introductory pricing. The new C5 headers were supposed to be out at the coaters last week and should start shipping in the next few weeks. SLP builds them in batches of 10 so everything won't be going out at the same time. Orders will ship from here in the order that they came into us.

Hope this helps,
Tom

To all,

Warning. If you buy the Headers, it has been strongly recommended you buy SLP's high flow cats. To use your stock system will be a problem. They will be relocated and you will need to do additional cutting and welding.

If you get all the SLP exhaust parts then your a complete bolt on. (headers+cats+H pipe)

Tom,

I just bought the complete set. :) I am now completely SLP from the heads BACK. well, as soon as you ship them and I install them.

I heard from www.marylandperformance.com
good things about the SLP setup on C5's. They have already done several!!

I will be asking marylandperformance to do a before and after dyno.

The only other thing I will be doing is a supership install. Will try to have a dyno before/after on that too if I can convince them! :)

BTW - EXCELLENT price. I couldn't pass up your costs, you beat everyone.

Hope this helps,

Glad that we could help you with your purchase. You mentioned that your installer has installed several sets of the SLP headers. Were these C5 headers or other vehicles? SLP hasn't released these headers yet. The first set that leaves there is actually for a retail customer (not going to a vendor). Looks like he made order #1 :)

He said he has done two on C5's. I talked to SLP, and apparently a select few customers have had sets for months and testing has been for the last year!

I scheduled my install for September 10th so PLEASE get my order to me before then :D Like you have any say in it, huh? :p:

Hopefully SLP will pull through for me and the rest of its waiting customers.

It was a tough decision between a complete exhaust setup and a torque conveter/gears, but it's all on the list and one item at a time!

Hehe!
