Hey, well, i finally got to install the MMW Racing Header on my tC and man does it fly!
When i first recieved my header, it was a 2-piece design, and unfortunately, the 2 pieces weren't connecting to each other...being hand-made and all, it was a real tight fit...but i called weapon-r, and they fixed the problem ASAP, and took care of the situation, and sent me another Header the same day, which i recieved in like 3 days. This one fit perfectly fine, and i was able to finally install on the tC. Install took about 2 hours, mostly because one of the studs on the OEM header was a b!tch to remove. Along with the header, there was the S-Pipe, and here are some pics:

The MMW header was dynoed and makes 26HP and 24.4TQ...as soon as i put the pedal to the metal, i couldnt believe the increase of power, the icrease in acceleration, etc...this thing just flies, so i recommend that u put this thing on ur x-mas list. haha. some may say that its expensive, but its the fastest header for the tC right now, it's hand made, so w/e, if u got the money, go for it.
Like all aftermarket headers for the tC, some of the MMW headers are recently getting CEL's, but MMW is working on the solution right now, and from what I've heard, they're almost finished, and the fix will be available soon.
will post dyno soon, just wanted to give my 2 cents on this mod, thank u, and thanks to weapon-r, and Leo @ MMW!

Actually you can hear how the car sounds on the Dyno.
This car had the following on the car at the time of dyno testing.
M2 Intake System
M2 Cold Airbox
M2 Ram Air Kit
M2 Race Header
M2 Ignition Equalizer Kit
M2 Engine Damper Kit
ZPI Exhaust System ( VERY LOUD IMO )
I Suggest TRD or DRAXAS.
