Greddy doesn't make headers as far as I know, so check your sources. It would cost around 500-600 US dollars at a US shop. Gains are good, 15-20 whp with torque through out the power band

would be good to get a soundclip of your system with its HFC's. Ill try and get a clip of mine at somepoint for comparison, as if i could loose some of the rasp but keep it exotic sounding id be a happier camper. . . .

This is the same combo I want to throw on my car. Fuji catback and Y-pipe with ulitmate racing HFCs.
Question about the fujitsubo catback: Besides the materials used(stainless steel vs Ti), what other differences are there between the Legalis R and the Ti one? Weight is one but what about power and dimensions?
Nice exhaust!

Okay, I found out that they are DC Sport Headers. Do anyone have any experience with these and HFC'S?

Ahhhh **** it! I talked the shop that does some heavier mechanical work on my car. They told me it will cost $700-800 cdn to install these DC Sport headers, and that they have a history of cracking at the flanges. Not worth the headache to me, especially if they break some time down the line. I'll just stick with the HFC's, which should be here in 2 weeks. It took Z1 Performance FOREVER to get back to my shop about ordering my cats!

Regarding the length of the tips, could they be cut about 3/4" ? Or would they begin to rust?
I ordered mine and I'm wondering if I'l like the tips sticking out so much :?

Okay, I have an update. I finally got my HFC's installed. Totally worth the wait. Probably the most noticable mod I've done so far. Makes my exhaust have a much more full and exotic sound. Power delivery is so much smoother, you can definitely tell that the stock cats are the most restrictive part of the exhaust system.

P.S: i`m so sure you will find another shop will charge you less for the install.

Thanks in advance!
