Just released for the Scion tC = the Alphawerks Racing "Smart" O2 Simulator. What does this mean?

1. Max horsepower w/o cat
2. No cat reliability issues
3. No check engine light ever (made in china cat's will throw CEL in time because they will get used up and then you are back at square one with a CEL problem.)

Get your Alpha Werks header at http://www.racingsolution.com/produc...essSteelHeader

 

These headers don't throw a CEL because they have an O2 simulator, not because of the cat. A good product regardless. If their prices were lower I would have bought theirs instead of Megan's to save myself from the hassle of fixing the CEL, but even that is a relatively simple fix in itself. Both are great products, just massively gapped in price.

 

too much $$$$$$$!

 

You get what you pay for...

I know that they are retailing for about $400...what do you get for that $

1. Most horsepower - We will sponsor anyone here to prove it
2. Best quality and design - ISO-9001 manufacturer certified
3. OEM stock bracket (w/o this welds on exhaust manifold will crack)
4. No check engine light ever w/ our Smart O2 Simulator ("Made in China" cat's will cause more problems than they solve, unfortunately, not to mention loss of power)
5. Patent Pending 4-1 collector
6. 100% T-304 STAINLESS STEEL, TIG WELDED

Those that have the piece know how beautiful the piece is...the header really speaks for itself...

 

Well you got my vote... this really looks like a good product, and no CEL w/o a very bad looking anti-fouler trick... but I will definetly post a review when I get one to give my opinion on it.

 

...

 

price shipped to 34116?

 

whats the hp and torque gain from just the header?

 

Click on the Alpha Werks header product on our website, and click "Buy Now" .. Enter your zipcode and it will get you your shipping quote.

 

There hasn't been a dyno of just the header yet, however Alpha werks is looking to sponsor someone to do the dyno of the header by itself.

 

If you are a forum member and can make it to South Florida for dyno we can sponsor the vehicle. Sorry we could not do at West Coast facility but we are very busy out there with R&D projects for Mazda RX8, Mitsubishi EVO 8 and Lexus SC430.

 

I want it. What if it does throw a CEL?

 

Does any Gaskets or bolts come with it

 

good luck with this header... if it produces the numbers i may get it....

 

But this one isn't really strreet legal either, is it?

 

how is it not street legal?

 

emissions

 

Hey NEXUS, put the header to the test, send it our way. We will have dyno numbers and all...


If it works out we can push this direct to Scion Corp and Scion Dealers.

 

it sure as hell wont pass NY, NJ, or CA emissions lol, but possibly other states, dont hold me to it though, i may be wrong.

 

my only concern with Alphawerks is the lame warranty 1yr. The header is beautiful, and of course your powertrain warranty is gone.
