Would it be recommended to upgrade headers on this kit? Thinking it's an obvious yes but figured I'd ask.

Not at all. The HR/VHR headers are fantastic, leaps and bounds ahead of the DE headers. I would not touch them at all...they will support HP numbers in the triple digits.

Not trying to bust ***** but i hope you mean 4 digits. 3 digits is meaningless considering the car already makes 3 digits. :-)

Someday I would love to own this amazing kit for my G!

Looking forward to see how this works out, and I may be interested in purchasing a kit.
I'm still interested, two years later.

I'm guessing this will not work with my Motordyne TDX2 exhaust system?

Is there an option to include catalytic converters?

The kit eliminates the y-pipe and cats. So any OEM fitting cat-back would fit.

I think if you want cats, it's custom and he was charging a good bit for it. Going off of another thread, just trying to help give you an idea.

Wondering how much more room we would need for an Auto trans install. I'm guessing the trans would be bigger, not sure anything else would be different

From what I understand, yes. But I just want to reiterate that I'm just going off of reading his various threads. So, you should wait for an official answer just in case.

Anytime you go to a Single turbo you cant run "true" duals, but you can have a y pipe go into a duals.

Correct...

Car is in for a clutch/flywheel install. Things are looking promising after a good inspection of everything.
