A little off topic, but this isn't necessarily true. While there aren't shops specializing in the IS-F here, there is at least one excellent shop, Autoworks. Matt maintains all of my cars (including my crazy projects and high horsepower builds) now that I'm too busy to deal with anything. They can handle custom fabrication and do amazing work. Getting a last minute appointment can be tough sometimes though. PM me if you ever don't want to just do it yourself and need contact info.

What was the cost?
^^^JE has installed over 40+ sets of SIKKY IS-F headers with no issues from anyone... A long drive for everything perfect first time around. Headers in our cars are something you only wanna do/deal with installing once. i drove 6 1/2 hours from Vermont... For my headers/exhaust then again for my nitrous kit. They did an amazing job for both installs.
On a side note, have you had any concerns with the nitrous, especially as you put more miles on your car?

I want to do the exact same thing to my F. Have an 08 looking for headers, intake, exhaust and a small nitrous shot. How large of a shot are you running? If you can I would be interested in knowing the cost independently of each of the mods you have performed.

Intake will run 150-300 bucks.
Headers 2000-2300 depending if you need new o2 sensors installed
Exhaust can very a lot depending if you buy a system and what brand. do a muffler delete, whatever route you go.
Nitrous system professional installed will run you around 2k with auto opener/bottle heater/gauge/upgraded plugs... the whole 9. It will be 3-4000 if it's a direct port system with all the gadgets.
I have a wet shot on a digital controller and run 100 shot on 93 and 150 shot on ms109 race gas. With direct port it would be 150 on pump 200+ shot with ms109
Thats the short of how you get a lot of power in a isf

When did India move to Bahrain? Is that a 400m run or the full 402.336m?
And yes, we've seen this car here before.

Welcome Chow70! You should come join the Wednesday night meets, details posted every week in the NELOC section. Regarding about headers a few of us members in NJ had our headers installed at Bulldogs Motorsports and they're located near Clifton Commons.

Like I said... No one, considering gtr's are making 1400 hp and running 8s... Ever heard of AMS, switzer performance, boost logic. There is no isf no matter how modded keeping up with a highly modified gtr.Of course I've seen that car. I prob own one of the top 20 fastest isf on a drag strip in the world and sorry but it's no gtr
