No because everyone wants to know if he installed his headers on his HR engine, therefore you fail and dave will back me up. Right?

I know many people are anxious to see the results as i get multiple pms all the time regarding the headers. At this point my test pipes and exhaust are uninstalled as Tony is still building the jigs for the Fast Intentions Dominator. It is pointless for me to put the headers on until I can put the exhaust only because the last dyno i had don(that will act as a baseline) was with my exhaust. Just today i made my appointment with Tony to come in not this monday but the next monday. My whole exhasut system will then be on with no more delay by wednesday. Then if i have my new injen dual intake i will go to technosquare where i got my last dyno and redyno with 3-5 runs with the new headers to see how much power i gained over the last dyno with stock headers and then have technosquare install teh intake and then redyno to see how much power i gained with the injen intake over the stillen. Note that if i dont' have the intake by then i will still get a dyno jsut because of the demand. And personally i do not care how much WHP individual parts give me but i care more in the overall result. I am only doing this to be a guinea pig for fellow HR members so they can be guided as to what modifications they want to pursue. I am trying to move things along as quickly as possible but Tony has been taking his time with the exhaust. Anyway i will let you guys know of the results as soon as i have them in hand. If you guys ahve any other questions feel free to ask. Also if anyone wants to come see the car after the install you are more than welcome to come down.

Like i said they will be installed on my car not this monday but the monday after for sure. If their is any more delay i think im going to kill tony and i'll have the dyno sheets out by the end of that week. BTW i rememebr that you wanted a review of the GTM valvebody upgrade. And well, its ****ing awsome. I like it more every single day. In drive, up to around 3K rpm it shifts just as before very softly. But once in manumatic mode, shifts at redline are necksnapping. I love it so much. Especially chirping the wheels from 1st to 2nd. Still shifts very hard in 2nd to 3rd and from 3rd to 4th but 1 to 2 is the most intense. The chirping is a little hard for me right now casue all my performacne parts are uninstalled at the moment along with teh 295 ps2 in the rear. All in all i give it a 8.5/10. Great mod that is pratical and works perfectly but might not lets say be the best bang for your buck.

I cant jusitify getting an HR anymore though. Instead of trading mine in and paying more I would rather buy a Vortech and call it a day. In the end my decision wont be so bad once I get FI.

Really appreciate you doing the "before and after" dyno with these headers.
People like you and "Profink" really add a lot to this forum by trying to provide objective data. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that we will see some worthwhile gains.

It's a hassle but worth it so people do not get ripped off in the end. It's my pleasure to do the dynos and as soon as i have the dyno for the headers i will post them. Other dynos i will have out in the futue will be stillen long dual intake vs the injen, stock pully vs UR pulley, and then my final dyno with all my mods plus a fast intentions intimidator repalcing the dominator. Hopefully will have all of these done by the beginning of August(fingers crossed).
