I am saving for one, but slowly. I want to slowly progress to it. I plan for the SC to be very very last. Stillen, we dont have much other choice. I know there is impul and FI, but they are priced very high

Where do you guys hear all this stuff from?

OP, I'd recommend PMing some people who have these headers to find out what they think about them before ordering.

Yeah, ive heard that too (about them not doing much). But i have a tune scheduled for july 29th and i figure i might as well get fully bolted on before. Even if there isnt a huge gain, it will make my exhaust sounds better which is always good. I havent heard about them not lining up. So Basically my modding line up for the next month : Takeda intake coming this week (CAI), Pulley's coming this week (i hope), headers this month. Im gonna get the HKS camp 2 next most likley. After that theres not much left in the bolt on department. So ill probably be upgrading to the akebono kit (AWD coupe comes with bitch brakes) but not sure if i should just upgrade to new pads and rotors, or drop the 2k on the whole kit. any input?

I actually PM'd a guy when I was interested in buying some. HAHA. He just said it makes the exhaust higher pitched. Didn't bother getting a dyno because he didn't feel anything.

HKS Camp2 is baller... I'm guessing you want it ahead of time before you get the SC. I would suggest upgrading to the bigger brakes, and while you're at it and if you have the funds go for pads, rotors and brake lines.

Hmmmm... so he added header, didn't care to dyno or get a tune and is probably running super lean or his power curve is all over the place instead of being corrected with a tune..

Probably haha. But to me the massive install charge (hell no i'm not trying that myself) wouldn't be worth it. But good luck steve!

I instal everything myself, instal price isnt an issue. Id much rather spend 10 hours on an instal then spend 500 bucks for someone to instal something.
