If its anything like the midpipe, then I'm sure it'll do great! Still "patiently" waiting haha.

Really looking forward to seeing how this turns out. Been holding off on buying another midpipe just for this!

Even if its not a good value I still want one

Charles on a side note with the midpipe for this header has a resonator? Any chance for a straight pipe?

That is my current issue with my exoticspeed midpipe I hate the resonator and want a full straight through system.

Can't wait for this to finally come out!

Charles,
I already have an existing BHR mid w/cat, will there be an option to just purchase the header? If not, will there be an option with that includes the cat?

It is a long tube header so your existing midpipe will not work.

I was hoping for a Bose like packing innovation. Oh well. The hi flow cat question still stands though.

I'm assuming 3" collector as your resonators/midpipes are 3"? Any chance for a 2.5"?

I'm very excited! I think this would be an excellent piece to go with my Racing Beat cat-back!

Charles,

Can you do ceramic coating & wrapped? If so would you be able to do this on the new header?

This is not a topic for this thread. The topic here is about the BHR Header. Create a new thread in the New Member forum to ask your question.
BTW, BHR does offer a midpipe that you may consider.

Yes I know it isn't. I've only been a member for a day and was having problems finding my way around so I tried finding a thread close to mine. And thank you. That is the one I've actually been looking at

After that is completed I will need to take one last look at the entire system to be sure all the details are covered. Matters such as compatibility with pre-existing cat-backs are taken into consideration so I can offer options to ensure the best fitment for my customers. Who the Hell else in this industry even gives a **** about that when releasing their own products?

Then, I need to consider the best packaging and have custom-sized boxes manufactured for this product.

All the while observing and controlling costs so I place the proper retail price tag on everything. After all the effort I have put into getting this damned header to the market I need to be sure my efforts are at least worth it in the long-run.

And you thought all we do in this industry is slap stuff together and shove out the door.

My next product will be a Hot Dog Tree as we all know that is where hot dogs come from, too............ LOL
Yay! Updates!^_^ any chance we could get a peek at what it would sound like?
