Is the difference worth it to everyone? No, and we know that...Our aim is more towards the high end parts and not mass produced products. I won't sell it if i wouldn't run it on my car.
So will Titanium exhaust tips be an option on the catback? Also how good is your warranty? Im only asking about the warranty to see if you will still cover the parts even though i track my car.

No titanium tip option at this point. Either full stainless or full titanium system. Warranty is the same as all our other products, lifetime to the original buyer. All of our products will be tested on the track, my car was on the track last weekend and will be going back out in a few weeks with our turbo system. I've been involved with enough time attack teams, etc over the years to understand the abuse the track can put on parts and have learned a lot from it.

jesse im sorry to ask again are these uel or el headers? im excited for monday to hear this and see the dyno results. This system right here is going to decide weather or not i stay NA or go FI in the next few years. i cant justify the price of this if im just going to go FI in two years and end up changing out the headers.

Good to know man, i always have respect for companies that track test their products. One thing is street abuse and another is track abuse. I love how it has flanges instead of slip on clamps. Only reason i was asking about your warranty is because of my thread that is a couple of spots under yours lol. Im very interested in the TI catback, whats your eta?

Regards

The ones pictured and on the car are the equal length headers. I'm building a set of UEL ones within the next week to test against these. If they end up making noticeably less power i don't know how keen i am on selling them, always been a fan of function.

Took the FRS around the block and went to grab some energy drinks since we are still working. Got back to see the headers are golding nicely.

If they sound amazing but dont make the power so you dont sell them you could always give the ones you already have made to one lucky forum member .. But no sounds like your putting alot of r&d in to make a great product.
