Or you could opt to get the only thing available at the moment which is ECUTek and pay like $750 (more than the cost of any intake). IMHO the piggyback will work perfectly fine for simple boltons and not break the bank.

Yeah I know you'll be able to get a good tune with it and it'll work well overall. I'm just a little OCD. I also had a bad experience when I was younger and dumber, trying to get 2 different piggybacks to work on an RX-8. Not a good car to cut your tuning teeth on!

Speaking of not breaking the bank, what's the ballpark for the piggyback tune?

After finally hearing them, this is probably one of my favorite sounding exhausts! Great job!

Bad car selection for piggybacks, let alone standalones, lol.

so close to pulling the trigger on this headerback, the only thing stopping me is that it doesn't use the normal flange/gasket. I've just had too much bad experience with slip joints that i'll never want to use them again.

to SRT: is it at all possible to have the slip joints switched out with flange/gaskets?
Even if I have to pay a little more?
I know you mentioned it's for customers to adjust the tip, but I think the preset adjustment is just fine. Or maybe just have the last section use a slip joint?

I just don't want to get that feeling not knowing when the thing is going to fall off.

My exhaust was supposed to be shipped out yesterday. Didn't get a tracking number though. Are you sending out tracking numbers?

This I would love to know (or just a PM to me when it ships) because I need to cross the boarder to pick it up from its shipping destination

Yea, Id like a headsup on shipping as well since I am going to be out of town for at least three days every week through September. I dont want my shiny new exhaust sitting outside the house for anyone to grab.
