I'm really looking forward to the final product and pricing. More header options and competition brings the price down. Everything thing I read about the header installation leads me to believe that it's a real PITA!

Yeah pretty sure the header install is no one I can do in my garage like my the exhaust. As much as I don't want to when I do get a set it will be one of the the first time I pay to get something installed in a long while.

Yeah. It seems pretty labor intensive since the motor must be pulled. How much did install run?

I don't even have a ISF and i'm excited. I am VERY happy with my PPE headers for my GS400. Not only do they look great and sound great. At higher rpm WOT they make my car sound very similar to an ISF.

None, Knock on wood. And i've driven about 1000 miles since i installed them. Couldn't be happier with the sound. Lost a little low end though. Shouldn't be a problem with your guys massive engine.

This was the tester car. Unfortunately he is selling it, but the PPE headers resulted from a 43WHP gain with a stock exhaust! Great gains!
