I hope you guys will have the headers done by next February 2013, I plan on ordering your ignition as well. Could you give us a round about price on how much the headers will cost? I was going to go cheap and buy the OBX headers but my pointer finger wouldnt click the right mouse button to finish the purchase. 
Oh thanks again for the fuel pump and tool too.My wife still talks about how nice you guys where to lend that out to me when I did my fuel pump over the summer.

All I can tell anyone right now is that it is a long-tube header that will include a shorty midpipe so as to retain the OEM location for the rear donut gasket. That way, it will fit all available cat-backs. The shorty midpipe will be resonated and will have the factory size outlet and an optional 3" outlet available for those using a true 3" cat-back (such as the TurboXS, HKS Hi-Power, and whatever else is 3" including the BHR cat-back we will work on as soon as the header kit is done.)
We have verified fitment of the header to the car and are next going to compare a couple different collector designs.
The price is not yet determined as I do not know yet what my exact unit cost will be per header kit. I can assure you that it won't be cheap but it will be built with quality and durability in mind.
Then, there are the motor mounts which are about 98% finished.......

If BHR themselves have said it will be pricey... You can guarantee it will be over $1000.
Let's break it down: this is a header system with effectively a resonated mid pipe as well. So expect your costs to be the equivalent of ($350) mid pipe + ($600-700) for headers + unique product offering long tube header premium ($200) + BHR markup and hype factor ($100-300)
Total? Expect from $1250 - $1550 easily

i can see it at 1K$ and maybe a little over.
believe you me, by the time you try to build one yourself you will understand that 1K is not a bad price.
There is a lot more to it than one may think.
Also--yes there will be a power increase and at a lower rpm than most expect. Guaranteed.

...and I bet you can probably get that same power with a racing beat header and mid-pipe combo for half the price as well. Okay, maybe 1hp better with long tubes

you dont have to believe me and I dont have ( yet) hard numbers to post-but it is a LOT more than 1 hp. I would GUESS maybe 10-15
just to clarify- i build my own system
11/24--late entry--just to clarify I do have a boosted engine.

Ooh. Cool. Another cat-back possibility. I would love to do the entire BHR exhaust for my 2009! I want one that takes some weight off, not adds some in, as the Racing Beat one does.

it would be nice if BHR did a single passenger exit exhaust...

it's the only exhaust option NOT on the market. I say go ahead and bite the bullet. It could turn out to be more profitable than you think. Even if for a short run.

haha that will never happen. I'm Just a pushy consumer looking for a single passenger exit exhast. I'm not sure if I was just caught off guard by your reply or if my previous statement struck the wrong nerve after reading your response...

I think the only reason is weight. It looks retarded imo so i personally would never have a single. The weight you save for a few track events or autox a year isn't worth looking stupid all the time. But that's just me. In a dedicated track car it would ofcourse be a different matter.
