Should just get an inspection where I am... if your car is awesome, you'll pass. No beer required. Good ole Jiffy Lube, lol.

Man you go to Jiffy Lube? That's scary. My little brother worked there for a while. It's basically the McDonalds of car service joints. The people working there have absolutely no idea how cars work, they just follow directions like robots. (Lazy robots with bad attitudes that is.)

Here in NH we have to bribe our service techs with beer or ammo.

Can't wait to get my header. I have a feeling I'm going to be waiting a while though.

Lol, I did with my Camaro. Probably won't with my FR-S. Need to find a more trustable and reputable place. Jiffy Lube is full of idiots. At one point, they pulled out my filter in my Camaro and asked where I purchased it so they could order one for me? Yeah... NO.

Haha, sounds about right! Avoid quick lubes like the plague man. I hear some joints use the same oil for everything. That could lead to some interesting results with our car.

I'll certainly be doing my own oil changes once I run out of dealer ones. You wouldn't believe how many are jealous of our oil filters.

As for the JDL UEL, I definitely want this for my high quality boxer rumble! It's always a constant back and forth between this header and the Nameless one. Superb quality.

UPDARE - UEL Header Group Buy /5/22



So to update you all we had to switch machine shops for all our flanges last week. They had been dragging their feet to get these done. I ended up going with a new place a few blocks from the shop. ALl materials minus head flanges are here. We have been cutting collectors while we wait. Once we get the flanges we will start cranking these out

We have a total of 20 on this group buy and are doing our best to get these to you ASAP.

Thanks,
Ronnie

+1 I'd be game too! Then JDL would have 40 headers on order.
