No problems. My track times didn't drop as i would've liked but i've found that my tires are the culprit....i think.
I'm getting better gas mileage

Well, my Sig tells you what I got out of the CT headers. Not as great as I thought. In stock form I was running consistent 15.1 and a personal best of 15.0. With the headers, on my initial post-headers installation outing, I only managed a 15.0 after 5 runs. To be fair, I had just installed new Toyos 235/45/17 T1-S, so maybe they were not "broken in yet"?
Anyway, after a month of driving around, I took my car to the track again and managed a 14.9. Weather conditions were essentially similar, as I live in Hawaii..hehehe. I was hoping for 14.8, but no dice that night. My IRMC was working too. I'll be going again in about 1.5 weeks. Hoping to hit 14.8.
So, bottom line, is it worth it...hmmm I don't know. Kinda ambivalent about it right now.
