I have vids of the PPEs with the Gemini and my custom exhaust revving, at the track, comparing to a Z with non resonated TPs with invidia Gemini, and hwy flyby.

These vids are with my custom exhaust, non resonated x pipe, 2 12in hushpower mufflers into a IPL muffler.

That would make me eternally happy if it didn't get too much louder. I like to be halfway considerate to my neighbors, for one thing, but the main thing I will not put up with is being loud on the freeway. No sense in going deaf in your DD. I won't know until this summer, though. My plan is to pair these bad boys up with some 4.08 gears, start beating up on unsuspecting people .

Sucks, one day on a band new AEM wideband and the O2 sensor died. Never got to go do any tuning work. AFR for the one day on the track was between 15.4 and 14.7 at WOT. I guess i really need to add some fuel.

Damn man, that's stupid lean. I know it's n/a and not boost...but 15.4 would be dangerous, in my mind, when you're on a track with extended WOT pulls. I personally wouldn't do it, but maybe you know something I don't

Hey, PPE, what gives? Just a month ago I was checking out your prices and it was $900 for a set of black painted headers...now all you offer are $1300 ceramic coated. I am still getting these headers no matter what, but I'm sad the price went up so much, even with the upgraded coating.

Yeah, I just saw that also, seems like they are selling a bunch, so they jack the price up I guess

That's the problem with monopolies. No way in hell I'm buying OBX, and I saw some PowerLab long tubes, but only Intense Power sells them, and nobody is running them, so no thanks.

Tuning these things has been a pain in the *** so im going to get it done professionally. I contacted VTR, but they never got back to me. Oh well performance motorsports has a happy dyno but i dont care i just want it tuned right and to take advantage of the cam timing adjustments on the dyno. My cel did come on though( dont really care) just for the people wondering.

Well I'm also curious as to why they stopped offering the standard black coating. Even with the price bump, those would be $1100. Is ceramic better? Sure. But tons of people run straight stainless headers with no ill effects as long as you protect everything around them, which is easy enough.

I have been looking for the o2 extension kits they supply with the headers. Are they the ones listed under Lexus on their website? Also does anyone have a pic of them? Could u post please. Looking to see if its an actual jumper like harness or just wires.
Thanks
