well I actually called them about maybe two weeks ago with another question, but when I brought the headers up the guy replied that they were still deciding on something, i forget. Basically they just want them to meet emissions i believe and 5-8 at the flywheel...i think. you can call yourself and ask, i don't remember things to clearly if they didn't say, "they're on the way."

I tested the Amemiya and OBX headers and got the same results (not much) from both. The OBX had to be modified to work with air injection which was a pain in the *** for a machinist friend of mine. Without any kind of tuning it won't gain you enough to justify the expense.

if you're going to act like a p-ssy you can't blame a bunch of hound dogs for trying to hump you ...

Well, when the information is already on this forum, I've always found it better to actually look through the 10-20 page thread because that will actually offer me information unlike a simple answer from one member of the forums. Honestly, I'd rather do the research myself rather than relying on someone else who may be giving you false information. There is a lot lower chance of finding bogus information on a well used thread than just saying "Are they a good buy?" and taking the advice of the first person who answers you. I've looked through thousands of threads to learn more about my car so I can actually make an informed decision and I suggest you do the same.

BTW, headers are pretty much useless in regards to power but do make the car sound better.

HAHA.....funny you stooped to such a low level of maturity. Instead of acknowledging your rudeness to myself as well as many other threads i could probably point out. However, I will not return the jab as I am much better than that. I was just pointing out what you are proving all by yourself. Congrats.

You definately helped me put research into a better perspective. But, I do have somewhat of an idea of headers and their use. I was just wondering about this particular brand and people's experiences and the worthiness of the product for its price. I definately do what you do when I have no idea about a detailed subject.
