RB Exhaust Headers - any news???

Hi

Does anybody has some updates on the Racing Beat headers developments? Since Sept the web site says "late 2007" but no news since then...

Does anyone has been testing them???

Happy new year to all

Cheers,

They make roughly 4-5 more peak horsepower than stock. No news on when they'll actually go on sale or the price though.

Expect to be price gouged like all RX8 parts. It's not Civic priced.

You can't sell as many RX-8 parts as you can Civic parts.

correct, the market aint as big, so they gotta make a profit somehow. it's proportional to the cost of the cars. lol

When I talked to one of their sales guys a few months ago they said they had the flange sourcing worked out and were expecting to have them out in January. I don't know if that date has changed though...
