Yea the snow has been killing me. The over 5 foot snow drift that was in front of my garage has now melted down to like 2 and half feet so I'm going to go out and shovel it out of the way and get the rest of the ice off my driveway so I can take her out at some point today.

Okay guys Ive done some more testing and I noticed that there was a little rubbing I think under extreme driving. My car is back down at the shop and they are checking to see if the headers were rubbing or not. If they are they are going to readjust the piping. They told me I was going to get a finished product this time. A set of headers from SIKKY is getting closer and closer to being finalized and in production. Sorry the testing is taking so long the weather really set me back.

No problem...I don't think anybody here would prefer headers being put on the market without the assurance that every kink has been worked out.

Okay everyone. Sorry I've been ghost for a little while. Testing is complete and NO CEL!!!!!!! I took my car down to the shop last week to have the final product installed. The final set of headers with finished look should be in a couple of weeks. In the mean time Sikky is working on some other goodies for our F's and they will hopefully have some on the car and ready for me to test when I get the car back. From what I've been told once I get the car back Sikky will be releasing pics and all info pretaining to the headers. And I believe at that point they will be taking orders. Anyway hope everyone is enjoying the change in seasons in their F's.

As far as the goodies go. They are designing a cold air intake and exhaust. I believe they are kicking around some other parts but have not decided yet if they will produce them yet.

Okay everyone JE has my car and they will be installing the final product on my car. They are going to take pics and final dyno runs and then Sikky will be selling the headers. They should be for sale by the end of this week! Remember these have been tested extensively so there will be no problems!!!
