Default Autoscience installed PPE Headers

Will upload video tomorrow. Can't even begin to tell you how awesome full headers and exhaust sound. It's like going from 2.1 Dolby to 7.1 Surround Sound. I might as well take out the mark levinson because the engine and exhaust is all I need. Btw Thanks to my buddy Ryan in Lewisville Texas @ Autoscience. Best shop around professional and no BS. If your looking for a install in Texas and make sure it's perfect these guys are the best. PM me if you have questions.

Wrapped. Make sure you get two rolls of titanium wrap at 50ft a piece or you won't have enough.

Expect with wrapping headers and install around 14 hrs. This was way more difficult than the ISF.

Expect to pay quite a bit for install. I don't ever disclose pricing sorry. But I will say you get what you pay for.

Im sorry. This is nearly 2x the quoted time alotment. The avg header instead for an RCF is 7-8 hours.
Wrapping the headers add an hour tops at best. I surely hope you didn't get taken for a ride.

I've been holding off on headers due to the CEL issue. Can you guys tell me if that has been resolved? Do you smell gas if the windows are down and you're not moving? Several posters have stated the issue with both after header installation. The gas smell issue I'm use to with other builds I've done, but for a Lexus....I'd rather not have to smell it.

When you install headers of course you will smell gas
