Mike is in the wind again is he? lol

Personally, I love my header, fittment wasn't the best (doesn't actually hit anything tho which is awesome), the collector is tilted down which isn't a huge problem but also favors the driver side of the tunnel by quite a bit...made for welding the rest of the exhaust kinda tricky. Also the 02 bung location is too low on the side of the pipe, they are lower than 90*, no issues with them yet so far.

I know Paul was having a few issues regarding his 02 sensor switching properly, mine doesn't seem to have any issues, however it does throw an 02 code from time to time, I got annoyed with this and just turned them off in HPT.


The ceramic coating on my header is phenominal, 20mins after shutting the engine off the header is cool to the touch, as a comparison, the engine block/clyinder head/valve cover are still burn your hand hot to the touch. Very nice stuff on there, I'm pretty sure Mike said he used Jet Hot.


Overall like I said I'm am very happy with my header for the price I paid, whether it made any power over my 4-1 header I couldn't tell you since the whole set-up is different now and I would have no way to compare it.

Mike is a great guy, I think he just gets overwhellemed from time to time with the work load of trying to juggle his full time job and fabricating performance parts at night and on the weekend. That doesn't mean tho that I approve of the way he conducted his buisness with me, IMO there are better ways to deal with things than the way he did.

I word of caution to anyone ordering from him, you WILL get your parts...WHEN you get them tho is anyones guess...lol


PS. Mike, you still owe me the factory valve train from my LSJ head and the other side of my v-band flange and clamp I'm sure Paul wants his v-band flange and clamp as well

i have all ur stuff in a box dave along with pauls stuff, i changed positions at work and have been working 60+ hours a week, which is definitly good money wise but bad for guys who want side work. its finally starting to slow down though. give me ur addy in CA and ill get ur stuff in tyhe mail. as for everyone else, im still here and as my work load slows at my real job ill probably start getting on here more and more again. its sucks that aaron sold his car and jim parted his out as those were good advertsising cars for me on here. i am still doing side work and as dave said u will get ur stuff with me but i was definitely slow to get him and paul there stuff butin my defense i will say at the same time those werent my normal things that i have done like head porting or intake building........ sorry guys. dave hit me up and let me know about how ur car is going please.

Don't worry, you can advertise with me, lol.

I definately will need my LSJ head ported next spring and I might consider these headers.

Mike, you are in AZ? Damn, I wish I knew that a WHOLE lot sooner. I'm only up in Colorado!

How much are you asking for these headers? I need one for an LD9...

Mike, just curious, but any luck at running these on a dyno? I would love to know how these fare up against the Stan's headers!
