Hasn't this been in development since June last year???? Not trying to be a **** but this was the first header I heard about and nearly everyone else has been released.

I really like the idea of more mid range and an American company. But that dip at 3k is bad looking.

Their car is still up on the lift, they are still working on it.
These guys are taking development to a whole new level. And they are a tiny shop.

Oh come on. This is getting overblown. They are a good shop. They aren't NASA. As far as the products they have produced to date...it's an axleback and midpipe. I have both, I like them too.

There must be some kind of award for this brilliant comedy

But I too agree...it's just a header.

It's not development until it's on an engine dyno.

Some like myself would like to wait, but may just have to make a decision by May 13th. It is actually kind of rediculous that they are coming up on their one year anniversary of announcing this thing. I would honestly like to support them, but how much effort does it take to have a receptionist, friend, customer, spouse, child, grandchild, to update facebook or the website, or the forum once a week with a status, hell, once a month? No, the message I am reading is that this customer is just not that important right now. Maybe someday, but not today.

You can only have an update if you want to call their shop and talk to someone, but they are busier than a one legged man in an ass kicking contest.

Please hold for one of our header developers, I have another call coming in, It appears to be Road & Track.

How many headers for the BRZ do you know of that have been tuned on an engine dyno?

We're only among a multitude of platforms that they do development on. Have you seen their custom v-mount STI?

I'll let @xjohnx handle this. I have a policy against arguing with faceless people on the web.... and I have to get back to work.

Maybe he doesn't think any of the parts available for the car have been developed

Right... because the only thing they have products for is the 86 platform...
