Looks awesome indeed.

Are both of the O2 bungs at the original locations? No need to modify anything, I assume?

I think this + RMW head and tune + a JCW exhaust = sneaky fast, under the radar type speed. "Exhaust officer? No sir!! It's stock!"

1) HP gain won't be far off on either. The main difference is going to be torque with the collector on the race header.

2) Yes, it should fit any cat back...

3) When I talked to Jan about it I believe he said the price was going to be a bit below $800. That was before he got all the final pricing back on the bending and stuff though, so that may have gone up or down.

so this header is shorter than the race header because I think I remember reading about fitment issues with the race header correct?? And something about relocating the flange and adding a resonator something like that. So if its shorter does it still sport equal length headers? and if so then what contributed to the longer length of the race header...collector maybe??

the Race header has longer primaries and a longer collector. There is way more technology in the Race header, it comes from NASCAR/INDY car

this header is stock length but with longer primaries than stock. Also this header has equal length primaries unlike the competition.

Yesterday Danny installed an exhaust on a customers car... He was revving it and telling him "Just let me pull the other resonator off, it'll sound great". Took about 10 minutes before he came back wanting him to pull it off and make it louder...

Got any sound clips of your car rusty? Need a W2A as well but not sure which to go for at the moment, waiting for one of Jans to reach the UK (then could we take my redline up Jan to 8K?)
