ZPI fits fine just make sure you attach it to the headers before the midpipe

tctunerz has the Alphawerk Header and Injen cai for $500... But they're rated 'F' on the Better Business Bureau's website, so shop at your own risk.

clubsciontc.com has the best price for it i think..$195 shipped for stainless flanges; $175 shipped for the regular one. i ordered mine from there but apparently they are out of stock but claimed they had 4 in stock when i ordered i decided to go ahead and wait the extra week for it to come in. hopefully its only a week..

GSC Motorsports aka KillertC.com has the same combo for 500. Actually $513 with shipping which is very reasonable, and it seems they are actually a reputable company considering all the dyno research they have done for us. About the draxas S-pipe, I think they actually fitted it to an AW header when they developed it and have a video of that exact setup on one of their customer cars. I assume there are minimal if any issues. I'll let everyone know when I install mine, once I actually find time to do it that is...

I got my header from ebay for like 200 or 300 a long time ago. Clubsciontc has the best price on the ZPI s-pipe. They're a good company, I've ordered from them before as well.

The price I said for 513 includes both the aw header and the injen CAI as a package. It's the best deal I found provided you can save up enough to buy both at the same time.

Our S-Pipe fits just fine with the AlphaWerks Header. Phillip from the SoCal tC Club provided his car for test fitting.

I still need to take an updated pic of the S-Pipe... maybe one of the customers from here who have received their S-Pipe will snap a pic and post it.

Hey DraXas,
Do you know if the MMW heard will mate with the DraXas s-pipe? I have the DraXas complete exhaust with s-pipe and I was thinking about buying the MMW header/s-pipe combo and selling the MMW s-pipe

I do not believe our S-Pipe will work with the MMW Header, because of the way their header is physically laid out. The flanges are at different locations.

Ok then would the MMW s-pipe mate with the DraXas cat-back system? I might have to sell the DraXas s-pipe instead of the MMW one. MMW seems to be the only one with a 4-2-1 header and thats what I want. I don't know if I can wait for DraXas to come out with theirs. It'll be a few months at least
