Carsnob, I'm waiting until this summer when Lou will have the "production" headers, I previously mentioned, for sale. I really do not want to pay 2K for headers either. The "production" headers, this is what Lou called them, will be less than 2K, yet will put out 25-30rwhp.

I've got no problem with hearing about your opinion, or anyone else's, about a particular brand mod. That is why I like this site so much and can hear people's opinion rather than read about a certain product in a magazine.

Yes I did - and they will make around the same HP as TPIS and the rest of the bunch in that price range.. BUT I paid 700 for my TPIS and that almost 300 less.

Yall have a good week,

BP

bparker,
Do you know Lou sales mid-length Stainless Steel Headers for $999.999 that will give about the same rwhp gain as the TPIS?

:skep: Hey BP, I'm sorry if I made your rev limiter exceeds its limit. I meant no disrespect to anyone. I'm all for pinching pennies & saving a buck, or two. :D

Why can't we leave the fighting to our troops in Iraq? :flag

Peace out & I'll be moving on now... :auto:
