I may be a masochist...

...'Cause my car's garaged for the winter and I just ordered a headerback from Perrin, so I'll get to look at the boxes for a couple months

I'll at least have the catback portion installed before spring, it'll be nice to compare catback and headerback sound I think.

It may take that long just to get the shipment anyway, they're selling like hotcakes and they're struggling to keep up with demand!

Ordered my system on Black Friday, I don't expect to see it for another month or so.

My space heater can't heat the whole garage I find the bigger problem than the air/floor being cold is actually the wrenches and ratchets being ice cold.

Yay for heated garages, even if they are tiny. And yes, the exhaust is backordered.

I ordered the headerback setup as well- brushed tips, catted with resonator- on the 31st, got an email saying they were back ordered, but then another email the same day saying they were shipped. Right now UPS has the packages arriving on the 9th.

I really considered unresonated since I'm getting catted (and if Perrin offers a catted header I'll probably get that too) but wasnt sure if I wanted to take the risk of it being too loud since it's my DD.
