PPE's headers start at $650. That's over priced to you?

Yeah, no joke, considering people here spend half that on an intake that gives... unknown gains and mostly noise.

Not a problem, once i'll actually make the headers they will be testing to show power results. Lets put it this way, if it doesn't make good power, i wont even offer it.

The SC400 headers i am selling have been dynoed anywhere from 17whp to 25whp gain. I dont know why the big gaps but every dyno is different as well as the equipment of the cars. These dyno number were tested by local customers. I expect i can get similar results out of the IS models as well.

For right now i want to see interest. Once i have enough i will start working on the design and we'll go from there. Once i have the final product and dyno results i will post a group buy.

High flow cats will not be included in the price i already quoted and the final price will depend on the design and what will be included with it. If i will offer CATs it will be for an additional charge.
