I agree that the prices for headers are absolutely absurd on this platform. But this platform is new.

R&D costs aside, they will be making huge margins on these. If ft86 speed factory really knows what they are doing, they will price it right. Forget the R&D costs, people are so much more willing to buy a $600 header than a $1000. I can almost guarantee they will sell more this way.
This is full of wrong.

So you get the OFT and OFH for the same price, and that makes it the case there is "no purpose" in buying this? Your reasoning is ridiculous.

As for your expert opinion on prices, you are WAY off on all accounts.

As others have stated, with the claimed warranty and gains as posted, $8-9XX is what I would expect. I can see a lot more people jumping on the boat though if it is in the 8XX range if that is possible.

Will there be an option to add a second o2 bung for a wideband? If so what would be the added cost?
