One sexy header

Not sure how many of you have seen these so I thought I would post it up.


?

info here...

I can't wait to see some plots on these. They claim decent gains over '98specs and have none of the ground clearence issues.

No a/c of p/s though... sorry wimps

Bah, I could make that in about 2 days... OK, maybe not, it looks like a nice peice, but could definitely use some ceramic coating or something. Nice equal length design, excellent quality welds, and good fitment (spacewise). You getting one? No p/s, I'd be a little worried if you have to park your car at the mall on your auto-X tires and you gotta hold your girlfriend's hand too, so one arm steering No A/C, no prob, never had it to begin with

Oh yeah - also comes with the almighty 2.5" collector.

Yeah, the work is top notch for sure. Various coatings are avaiable and actually, I think you can even customize the grade of steel.

P/S = gone and don't need it
a/c = gone and don't need it (not even with the black leathers.

Ever hear of south florida performance...SFP headers. My buddy is getting a custom turbo header for his D17 engine. Anyone know about them at all?

Most people seem to prefer Rev Hard, DRAG or Max Rev.

In addition to the log-style, I know Rev Hard makes a tubular unit, and I *think* Max Rev does as well. Kooks makes a tubular unit as well.
