Sounds like a good mod that really gives HP. I"m willing to try it out. I wonder how hard the install is.

JB, check your PM coming shortly to get ppe signed up to be a forum vendor, thanks. Appreciate you being the guinea pig and working on this with them for everyone!

No problem.

FYI for everyone, I DO NOT WORK FOR PPE AND DO NOT SPEAK FOR THEM. Hence why I said to email them with any questions. Thanks!

There is a deeper tone now overall and the car is definitely a little louder now.

Difficulty of installation is something you would need to email PPE about. From what they told me, it will be a semi-hard install, but not an impossible one. Definitely will be a LOT easier with a lift though I'm sure.

And I'm glad I could help out!

did they use the existing O2 sensor wiring, or did they extend the wires? Can you provide pics of the headers installed?

thanks for the update!!!

I'll see if I can take some pics tomorrow. I will also see if they took any prior to install.

No, they replace the stock primary CATs with high-flow CATs. The secondary CATs had been removed previously when I got my exhaust.

just realized your running a full custom exhaust. the original dyno before install of the headers included that exhaust from the headers back?

I think AZ said that it does not work for the 250. the 250 and 350 has very different platforms

Yes. The before dyno included my exhaust and intake. The after included them plus the headers.

You'll need to contact PPE reference price. And as far as I know these will not fit a 250 from what I was told.

Nice gains! Now I wish even more that we could have the 350 and not the 250.

You should make it out to a meet sometime, I'd love to check out your IS.
