It takes JE Import Performance in baltimore 6 hours but they were the ones who helped Sikky install the headers for my car. It should take a skilled mechanic with the proper tools and know how about 8 hours is what Sikky said. And the motor does not have to be pulled the cross member just needs to be lowered slightly.

Comparing the information on both headers, it looks like out of the box Sikky's headers yield greater numbers. Installation is my big concern, I'm even considering sending my car to Baltimore to get the headers installed (if there is a special pricing for headers+installation combo).

only thing about pricing is that sikky doesnt have the swaintech coating. which costs 350. so they are the same price.

Weather its Sikky headers or our headers I would be willing to do a group install if Janoy at ISS would be willing to let me come down!
