I got the XS headers, just make sure you reweld the runners to the flang. Paul had to reweld all of mines because they were cracking everywhere. I talked to richie and his J pipe wont work with out headers. His J pipe only works with the TL. If you look at the J Pipe you will see it curves. That same curve matches the one on the Stock TL J-Pipe but not ours.

Well I just went ahead and ordered my AEM FIC today. My mechanic spent a few hours this morning calling companys like AEM and greddy to get the true low down on their units as far as how compatible they are with my CL. It turns out that none of them are fully compatible as far as having full timing control. Like the emanage is suppose to be able to advance timing but due to something with the crank on my or our cars it cannot. It can only retard timing just like the FIC. Just about everyone running the emanage blue is boosted so they would never be trying to advance timing to notice that it may not work. So basically now with the emanage blue for our cars it cannot :advance timing, pull fuel or change vtec. Now as far as the FIC, it cant advance either but it has full fuel control and vtec control. Now the way I was told to get around the timing advancement is to manually advance the timing with something else and then use the FIC or Blue to pull the timing back down to whats needed. Doing this with the FIC will now allow you to fully tune your fuel, timing and vtec and best part is that th FIC still has the o2 screw so the learning ECU will never be a issue again and for people like me with the AEM UEGO wideband you can connect it to that for logging. Well thats what I learned today so once I get it and wired up with a boomslang extension harness I will start off with dyno tuning just the fuel then later test the timing once I get the proper timing advancing device.

I think the Comptech unit will be holding me back when I get the SC on.

good news guys. I got my FIC in hand with my plug and play extension harness. All I have to do is get it all wired up. Hopefully I can convince my mechanic to wire it all up and install it for me this weekend, if not I will just be dropping it off for hopefully pic up next week. Goal is to be able to get it dyno tuned next friday.
