Regarding ceramic coating....yeah....it is nice to have and keep under hood temps lower, especially here in the desert southwest.

Regarding the mail order tune.....again agree....just do not know of any tuners in my area, will definitely look again should I actually get headers.
You can double check over on the LS1tech site and I am sure they can help you find a tuner in your general area or at least up in the Phoenix area.

Sent Chuck Cow a PM and he replied back to give him a call...which I will.

Also found Borla 17259 which is headers, X-midpipe, extensions on Amazon for $521.37 which is a bit odd as everywhere else they are $1389.xx. Probably a mistake but I ordered them although I expect to receive a message that the listing is an error...but what the heck!

I only want the headers and could sell the other parts for cheap. Waiting to see what happens.

Maybe a late Christmas present if it is complete and you got it for that price! Only time will tell.

Well....I got an email from Amazon today telling me my order was returned by the carrier due to a address error and issued me a refund. In reality, the seller finally saw the incorrect price and stopped the shipment. UPS gave me tracking from SC to NC, but then it stopped there with no further info.

Oh well....it was fun to think I was going to get Borla headers at such a great price.....but that "kinda stuff" never happens for me.

Back to looking at headers.
