headers installation video
http://grinnerhester.com/headers.html
these dudes were totally cool to me. Let me shoot the whole install and sent me to lunch in a demo Charger.
I only take my car to car lovers for work. I'll leave my ride with these dudes anytime.

RE: headers installation video
Grinner,
Great video.
Did you go with the ceramic coated headers?
Also, I have heard some members have Check Engine Lights coming on due to the O2 sensor failures (some calculation the computer does to measure O2 and if the number of hydrocarbons is too high at a center point within the header pipe, it will send a code).
Do you have this issue?
I also saw the dealer had the STARSCAN in his hands for your application? Did he flash your computer with a upgrade or what was the reason for this?
And one last question. Since you did promote and advertise for this dealer, did they cut you a break on the $ to install? If not what could a consumer expect to pay for this install on your video.
Can you notice the HP differance between before and after? It was hard for me to realize true HP gains with my exhaust (zoomers) because it just sounds so much better.... I think I've got more HP....
Thank you for your time to answer my questions.

yes. They look awesome and keep things a bit cooler.

Do you have this issue?
Yes. It comes and goes. Doesn't bug me much.

I was flashed to the latest version... just the tranny. I shift a weeee bit higher now.

He didn't cut me a deal but he did quote me a 400 dollar flat rate and stuck to it after 10 hours of labor at 90/hr. I'd say 400 or 500 is average.

Thats about it. It sounds mean enough to believe it's a monster. My track times did not change.
