Any thoughts on how that high flow cat will hold up over time?
Just asking because I have heard high flow aftermarket cats that close to the manifold usually burn out quick. I have no personal experience and really want a header with a cat but if it is going to burn out then I'd rather not waste money paying extra for a cat.

If it doesn't come as an option there are coatings that you can apply on your own. I've done it on the header/muffler on my VW Beetle with great success and not all that expensive around $35 per application and it's been on my Bug for a year now and still looking good and I lived in AZ.

The company that I purchased the Ceramic coating from prior was Eastwood company

Our warranty on this will be as follows:

3yrs on the Catalytic converter for the original owner.
Lifetime on the header against cracking and etc for the original owner.

We are working on this option. Still gathering quotes and timelines for turn around.

3 years on the cat seems legit from everything I have researched. They generally last about that long in FI set ups, so in NA form we should be ok.

Seeing this and coming from having the BORLA count me in! I hope to get in on this first round of units tees are going to be the best bang for your buck header on the market I'm sure of it!

Ready to buy. Even sent you guys an email

That un-tuned dyno looks great. The welds don't bother me as long as they hold up. The warranty is nice insurance for that.

My bigger concern is the location of the HFC. Have you guys done track testing and has the HFC held up? As I'm sure you know, our exhausts get really hot at the track. The worst thing would be for the HFC to blow out or break apart, especially with it being located so close to the engine.

Beautiful sound and it's not obnoxious!

I'll be waiting for someone to pick these up with a header back Perrin system! I want that boxer rumble without the headache noise

MayhembB · 12-24-2013, 04:26 PM
