$1k +/-...not too bad for 21whp...and that's BEFORE any group buy pricing, and there definitely seems to be enough interest here to get good sized group together.

Pics and lead time would be great (I know pics are coming, but I haven't seen anything on how long between purchase and delivery).


Excelerate - are you still potentially handling a group buy on these?

The one thing that bothers me is that he is not doing much pipe work. I wish he would just do everything at once with the y pipe because I think that would let alot of the bottlenecking free. If you look at that piping I think their is a lot of potential.

Hey, shouldn't you be in school, mister?

The AEM is a good value, no question, but I truly doubt the 19...just seems a little high to me...but it's only $150 or so, so definitely a must have. Now, compare the $1k for downpipes to the $1k for a CT exhaust...21 versus 5...hence my original point. Not the best value, but still a good one.


blktl - true, but it doesn't sound like that is really going to happen...at least from what you said earlier...

I am trying to find out. I am awaiting a response from Nitro via PM or in this thread but I haven't received one. I don't know if he has gotten it taken care of or if he needs help to organize it on AZ.

well whatever it is i dont think its entirely unreasonable. i can get car sound hi-flow cats (not CA obd2 legal) but obd2 for every other state. im sure the quality is just as good if not better than the ones that are going to be used. i wouldnt give a shit if a problem did come up, i have no problem fixing it. also, figure the cats run 250 list, i would save a shitload of money providing my own.

All I am saying is the more parts you attempt to supply yourself...the less profit potential there is in it for him....making it a less desirable situation. Not to mention the possibility for damage in either direction in shipping....and exactly when this damage happened....on the way there...the the way back to you? Who knows...maybe he has no problems with it....but I wouldnt touch it with a ten foot pole. Too many places for problems with customer parts that they end up blaming you for....ending up in lost profits or bad customer relations. Who knows though...maybe he wont have a problem with it?

That is great gas mileage. the best i have seen with my setup was 31mg was on a long all highway trip. 34 average is great. I hope I get an increase like that . wil this guy have any made up any time soon?? I live in Jersey and I will take a day off to go down and pick it up.

LOL subinf....I just saw your little caption under your pic "the 1st w/ magnaflows" Should I put second with magnaflow under mine? I really wouldn't have built my exhaust if it wasn't for you. I still love the exhaust.
