Default Headers!!!

Just got them on my car and they made a big difference in performance. When I hit the throttle in either 1st or 2nd it spins the tires. It will spin in 3rd too. I have to get wider tires now. Stock tires aren't cutting it. Anyway I'll let everyone know how the testing goes. I'm testing them for the company. The sound is ridiculous. The videos don't do it justice.

What's the matter Jaslapp? Did you have extra time on your hands today or something...to sit around and post videos? My guess is that you weren't cruising around all day. Hahaha. Check out my threat on LexusF...I really wish I had enough room for the F in the garage right now.

So you are not throwing any codes? Do you have any pics of the headers on and off the car?

I can't wait for this 30 inches of snow to melt. I want to come up there and check out your car in person. BTW..What is that whistle sound I hear in the vids when you let off the throttle? You hiding some boost up in there? :P

The LFA has the same whistle sound and we know it's not turboed, maybe something special with the F engines? I'm still waiting for an answer to some questions posted already:
1. Did you have to drop the engine to install the headers?
2. How did you manage to avoid the CEL?
3. HP and TQ gains?
4. Pictures of your engine bay, shots from under the car, and pictures of the headers before installation.
5. Price?
