yeah.. it looks like the SS's are slow in coming..... im ok with it, although i know most of you guys are anxious as i was. i saw the dyno sheets for the MMW header so now im trying to decide if im going to pick up the MMW header which comes with a S pipe...

Petem, if you go with the MMW race header you wont be disappointed. i just picked up one last week and after the install i drove it around and i couldnt be any happier my friend rode in my car and bought one for his tc. another buddy of mine with just an injen intake drove my car and now hes about to buy one. its also a matched system and fits perfect, you wont have to worry about mixing and matching.

i used to own a DC sports header by the way, and the MMW blows it out of the water. the DC offered high end. but the MMW offers power throughout the whole powerband beucase of its 4-2-1 design

thanks mahalzkita28... yeah.. im probably going to pick one up.. TRUE end user comments like yours are what really sells a product.. i know dyno sheets speak numbers.. but when customers are happy then it makes it worth while.. thanks

I just installed my aluminized S-pipe yesterday with a Megan header. Everything fit perfect! Made a very noticable increase in power. I highly recommend it.

Fit was perfect
All gaskets and hardware included.
I give it a thumbs up!

I believe that was due to their choice in design.

if you pickup a sky/solstice (i think thats the family...) then wait until the end of the first model year and see if there are many problems.. then pick it up on the cheap at the year end sales
