Not sure I'll be in town for the combined meet. If my plans change I would go to see how we are treated this time. The last combined meet was a suprise to the 7s as there were more of us than them.

If you just have a header, nothing. You might get some sound but not much. But if you have intake header and exhaust you can tell its there. Dont just get the header and install it. Its to much of a pain in the a$$ to install. Wait till you get your exhaust and then install the two. Thats what I'm doing. And you might want to get a front o2 sensor. They go for about $180. The oem ones tend to get stuck on there the oem exhaust manifold. So to pervent down time, get one just to be on the safe side
I just placed my order for my obx exhaust! I got it off ebay It should be here Monday or sometime this coming week.
Now I need to get a o2 sensor so I can install my header and exhaust at the same time

Gil, I take it that with adding the OBX header you have commited to n/a for your 8? Did you take advantage of the flash with MM?

If your going to FI think twice, if your going to stay n/a then it's your call. As far as I can tell Mike is the only one who is having any success with it and that may be because of his other mods. In a couple of months I will be proping a dyno day and I will be interested to see what Mike's 8 is doing. I trully feel that the falsh will give you more performance and hp than the header.

yeah, all the staff knows about it but they weren't telling the students. All the kids are still at the school but my mom works for the police and she got a tip from 1 of her cop friends. i tried telling everyone i knew to leave the school but there are still like 4thousand kids at the school.
