Hey Rak thanks for all that you do for the community it is greatly appreciated. Any pic of the full header available, this one is only a small partial pic. Does it have all the o2 bungs already? By the way if you are hooked up with this company, please inquire if the "free shipping applies to Guam 96932, and if it does I am buying one.

Bah I'm still waiting on my refund from bippu, I will order this right away though!

Does it come with any sort of mechanical fix for the CEL or do we have to fix that on our own?

I also want to know this. Also, it says SER, I'm assuming this is also for the Spec-V as well?

Also, when exactly is the end of the week? What's the final date of the promotion?

yeah cuz i don't get paid again until next friday. but unfortunately i also have to pay a ticket then too.

ibanez37 · 2008-07-24 13:16:48

I'd also like to see a full pic if possible.. your post leads me to believe that this is a shorty header that DOES NOT include the down pipe, unlike the megan header your were working on getting that had both. Is this true? Any sound clips of it on your car?

EDIT: I call it a shorty header because all the Si headers available to us are race headers that bolt straight up to the catback. We only have 1 option that is not which is a shorty header that can be bolted up to a high flow cat "down pipe" that connects to the catback.

02SERious · 2008-07-24 14:49:50

damn good job robert! and nice discount too. finally some stuff for you b16 guys! can't wait to see the gains.

afrogunso · 2008-07-24 17:26:20

purchased! woot no more pre cats

dirtyV · 2008-07-24 17:28:12

I will order it. Need to know if it'll bolt up to the stock piping and are CELs an issue? noob questions, but I'd rather know ahead of time.

+1 for me too. I plan to get it eventually anyway. I doubt I can get it in time for this deal though, but I have the same questions.

07Spec · 2008-07-24 22:56:28

noob question but would it be worth getting it if I still have stock exhaust.. if I remember correctly, our stock exhaust isnt the problem it is the prectas in the header, so I should be good to go then right??

afrogunso · 2008-07-24 23:00:18

For solving that problem yes, performance wise it would be better to get it all done at once since you will still be restricted by the rest of your piping.

diaz9220 · 2008-07-25 02:12:28

Couple of questions i'd like answered though please.

1. Will the header have any issues with performance if everything else is stock?
2. Does the header come with warranty?
3. How much hp do you gain from it?
4. Are there any irregularities caused from it that will alter the emissions test? (Will it fail the smog?)

Thanks Rakonismo.

Hijo De Puta!

all that horsepower stuff can not be answered until my dynoing is all done.

check the website for details... api stands by their products, and unless you install the header with some ky jelly and a sledgehammer you should never have a problem or any warranty replacements.

4.... you are deleting 2 catalytic converters, i think the smog situation speaks for itself.

if you wanna go fast, you gotta pay the price one way or another, also we will have a midpipe option soon. just has to get a nice one fabbed up

oh and people just to let you know... the stock exhaust isnt that bad, you should still see decent gains, but if you wanna maximize gains... i suggest a nice full headerback set up, about a 2.5 inch.

btw... horsepower varies on EVERY car, there are the variables of temp, altitude, dyno, engine, drivetrain... all of that crazy crap will be different on every car.

alexphoenix · 2008-07-25 03:20:26

rakonismo he just called you son of a bitch.

and about the header thanks man i just need to get the money.

rakonismo · 2008-07-25 03:36:23

well i just hope you make the group buy.

im really trying to make our community get some parts.

took us wayyyyy tooo long to even get to this point.

but at least its happening.

plalm · 2008-07-25 08:23:30

+1 i hope this works out for everybody and companies will see that we are at least really interested in their products.

whysoSERious · 2008-07-25 09:38:06

Most definitely interested. I will wait til saturday to see more info, but if it all looks good, then I'll pick one up.

Stitch · 2008-07-25 10:55:39

Excited to see what happenes tonight.

Our stock exhaust is calsonic yummm I almost don't wanna change it out.

Yup lol. Sorry it's upsidedown but you can clearly see calsonic.

uhh theres a couple of different things made by calsonic. dont see whats the big deal..

rakonismo · 2008-07-26 03:39:53

we may have to delay finalizing this project a few days...

i keep getting spammed by people wanting the intake manifold for the b15s and we may do that project first before finishing this one.

also the dyno we were supposed to use closed early today... so no baseline dyno FTL

so while my car is dropped off at api for 3-4 weeks. EVERYTHING will be pretty much made/tested/dynoed.

they will most likely email the link to the clips on youtube. and let everyone drool over the piece, oh and the turbo kit.

Stitch · 2008-07-26 06:46:11

aww don't scam out on us, we were first! The IM is next!

As fellow brethren they should be concerned we still have those pre-cats!

But Def IM next they need it bad!

dirtyV · 2008-07-26 08:57:07

Since the details are being delayed, will the discount follow suite and be extended?

afrogunso · 2008-07-26 09:38:16

Lol so are they making it available for us to purchase when they haven't finished it yet? I don't mind, i'm used to waiting. I just think its funny.

07Spec · 2008-07-26 11:22:36

dude your killing us, I know A LOT of people are going to buy this, myself included but I want to see the baseline dyno.. and would that be with your intake and exhaust?? or how are you doing it?

ANARCHY671 · 2008-07-26 17:52:50

Clips, pics, vids, anything? Also is there going to be a down pipe available for this, and how much? I sent them an e-mail regarding shipping and they have yet to reply.

07Spec · 2008-07-27 11:06:25

come on rako give us some info lol

rakonismo · 2008-07-27 12:54:17

ok guys sorry for the delay.

we are going to try to get this out asap, its just ALOT of work.

since we have a deadline for this turbo kit to be done due to all of our supporting companies kinda breathing down our throat we have been sort of busy with that.

header will be first, and in fact we should have a stock baseline dyno no later than this weekend, then install of header on that car, and then dyno of that.

intake manifold will follow on a b15 shortly after, but at the same time there will be my car being worked on for the turbo manifold/piping and all of that good stuff.

i have been so busy, and my inbox is getting hit hard, so ill try to reply to everyone asap.

07Spec · 2008-07-27 17:00:20

for the dyno, is the car going to be stock? have intake and exhaust?? How is it being done

And how long is the GB going to last then? Are they extending it due to the delay

Yeah the ac vents on my friends 94 altima are calsonic. lol.

dirtyV · 2008-07-27 19:10:57

I still don't get the Calsonic thing. Is it a company that makes OE parts? What makes it 'yum'?

rakonismo · 2008-07-27 19:39:47

hey you guys.

expect update this week sometime.

im leaving for germany on thursday so ill be on sporatically trying to update you guys when api updates me.

Stitch · 2008-07-28 11:38:51

Calsonic makes really good OEM parts that's all

Hitman86 · 2008-07-29 19:03:35

So no answer if there will be a CEL...please advise

Thanks

rakonismo · 2008-07-29 19:21:28

we are working on there being no check engine light.

we totally redesigned a whole new header to try to avoid this, and once its installed and dynoed we hope that no codes will be thrown.

diaz9220 · 2008-07-30 03:07:19

Okay so the header is not finished?
When will it be finished and will we have the discount until it is?
When does the discount end?

Stitch · 2008-07-30 10:32:19

If the discount goes until saturday, do you have a rough estimate of when we could possibly see shipment.

diaz9220 · 2008-07-30 15:05:18

when does the discount end? that is my main concern.
