Exactly what I meant, thanks for your input.

Shouldn't you have dyno every evolution of this header to back up your R&D?
Or what tool do they use to validate each step of their super long r&d?
I'm a bit sceptical now after so many month I would have expect a launch with at least a Dyno.

I'm starting to wonder if maybe, just maybe, the numbers aren't so great and they are toying around hard with tune configs trying to make them better.

As for the final version dyno's, I certainly hope they release those before they start shipping, since i have already paid and all  |
Trust me, I want to have the numbers back as badly as all of you do, keep in mind that I will have one of these on my car as well.
Here's the scoop.
The header is down at our tuner, where it has been since the day after Christmas. We also took down a whole bevy of exhaust configurations in order to get a wide range of numbers to observe. We will have baseline data, header only data, and tuned data for several of our configurations. As far as I know, he is using this opportunity to test the new Motec M1 while working with the header as well.
We hope to have some numbers back this week, even if it isn't the final conglomerate of information that we will have when the testing is completed.
Every prototype of the header has been tested, both on the road and at the dyno, that is how we have arrived at the production version we have now. It is a product of many trials and errors in order to bring you guys the best that we have to offer. If it had turned out that we were not happy with this design, we would have scrapped it and redesigned long before we made it available for purchase.
Stay tuned for more updates.
