OBX Headers and SSAutoChrome Clarificatoin from Accordv6.com

http://www.v6accord.com/forums/showt...threadid=12594

well it looks like the guy that posted doesnt work there anymore or at least doesnt sell anymore. Tim(crazyhorse) has been speaking to the owner of SSautochrome and with OBX.

if you got questions, ask Bucky, he seems to be very receptive and wants to help. Maybe he can offer his deal to you guys too.

He is offering the headers at 495 shipped, recompensation for getting the car dynoed and spark plug wires to someone.

Hi Bucky,

I am very glad to see that all the trouble has been cleared out. I would like to propose the availability of my 2001 Acura CL-S 5-Speed Automatic for OBC Racing Headers' Dyno test. I believe that since the Comptech headers are the same for the V6-TL-CL with Automatic gearbox, that the OBX headers should fit.

I understand that the actual offer is the following:

1) I am interested in your OBX headers.
2) I am willing to pay $495 for the OBX headers shipped.
3) You are willing to re-imburse or direct pay the Dyno fees (The local dyno asks anywhere from $75 to $100 per 3-runs. So before and after should cost around $200).
4) The headers comes with moeny-back guarrenty.
5) The headers comes with lifetime warrenty.
6) Instead of recieving of some free bees (which is very much appreciated), how about covering the cost of headers installation ( I estimate a max of $75-$125 for the headers installation fees ).

In recognition of the acceptance of this offer, I would post a detailed review with photos similar to this one: http://www.acura-cl.com/forums/showt...ghlight=review

And, If the OBX headers perform as advertised, I would volunter to be your #1 promoter on following borads:

1) www.Acura-cl.com
2) www.Acura-tl.com
3) www.V6Accord.com


Let me know what you think,

Best regards,

Nashua Night Hawk (aka Nashua CLS)

Nashua_Night_Hawk -

Thanks for getting us involved. It looks like he is going to go ahead with your dyno. Keep us informed, and don't forget about the write up you promised.

Those damn AV6'ers like to wine. I think you did a good thing. It will help Bucky sales a lot.

Thanks,
juice

You got me on that one!... However, I was very busy by the side of my wife and our new and first baby girl. Tomorrow she will be 1 week old. The most joyful days of my life...

Sorry for the delay...

If the headers are shipped as promised this Friday, I expect to have them by the following Wednesday.

Depending on the schedule of the Dyno shop, Instalaltion place. I expect to do all the following withing the next 2 weeks:
1) My regular 5k miles service (Oil change SuperSyn 5-30, Air Cone clean up and recharging, Tire rotations)
2) Dyno with my current mods with stock headers ( I hope the weather would be cool and less humnid )
3) Installation
4) Re-Dyno with OBX Racing headers.

If possible, I planning on doing 2-3-4 on the same day!
