Has anyone received their DC headers? I just finished talking to summit racing and they said they are expecting to recieve the headers in august 20th! WTF before it was the end of this month, now its the end of august? What is going on?

 

I haven't gotten mine yet, but their website says it will be arriving at their place on August 1st. Mine used to say August 20th a few weeks ago, but they bumped it earlier.

 

same here...

 

Mine are on my car....

 

used to say 20th aug and now 1st aug

 

I got mine from Performance Nissan. They arrived three days after I placed the order.

Was this a group buy?

 

Received mine from Summit racing on 7/14/04.. Dealer to install for $250.00

 

How do you like the headers, any noticable differences in sound or power?

 

man $250 to install is a deal.. my dealer quoted me $550.. ouch!

 

My ship date has changed a few times. Now it says 07/25/04. Keeping fingers crossed.

Note: I got quoted $375 from Street Image, $400 from Performance, and $275 from a local fab/exhaust shop to install this header

 

i haven't order headers yet but which ones are everyone getting the ceramic or stainless

 

I'm still waiting on my personal order...

I got 7/25 arrival date but I have not seen anything yet

 

The arrival date they give you on their site is the day it's suppose to arrive at their facilities (I asked serveral customer service reps multiple times ). They repackage and then ship to you. I don't know how long that takes, but I know 7/25 isn't the date the customers gets it.

 

mine says 7/25 too...so hopefully soon....we'll see

 

i just got a letter in the mail saying 8-05. I dont know who to follow

 

Are they on back order?

At least I can let you know that I just got mine installed yesterday...you're gonna love them!

 

Could you elaborate on the love part. What differences do you notice.. Thanks

 

It is really hard to say how much is from the headers, themselves, since I had the headers, hi-flow cats, and Borla installed at the same time. But there is clearly more power throughout the power band. And the sound is sweet!

Prior to the install, I had a Popcharger and Kinetix v4 plenum only. It felt like I'd lost some low-end torque, but it is back now with a vengence.

They also look sweet installed...but you have to peek through the rest of the stuff in the engine bay.

I'd like to think at least part of the gains are from the headers, since Turbo mag did a dyno test with them recently and showed the largest gains around 3800 rpm (9 hp/ 12.5 tq). Peak gain was only 1 hp/ 5 tq. I'm thinking the headers are more than a sugar pill.

 

I am willing to bet the high flow cats was the largest part of your gains, b/c they are the most restrictive part you replaced.

BTW orderd mine on 5/28, last ship date I was told was fist week of Aug.

 

I agree, since the cats are the biggest bottleneck in the exhaust system. However, I'd like to think at least some of the gain came from the headers.
