They took the engine out to fit headers........ they could have just removed the subframe at the very worst case!

We did not have a ramp available on the first car, we fitted them on the floor without removing anything. Took us less than 7 hours in total.

I hope you have driven the car enough before you make any kind of judgement.

When any header is initially installed the car typically feels flat and lethargic. You need to drive it and drive it quite hard.

It may also be necessary to reset adaptions and drive some more.

Leave the dyno until I can do the software so we can save money and time. If any adjustments are required (unlikely) then I can do them there and then.

Do things the way we suggest and you will be happy.

Oh... and make sure the air filters are clean! We just finished a car yesterday. Gained 35hp @ 5800rpm but only 25hp @ 7000rpm!. Looked at filters - very blocked.

Your car doesn't really have any other real performance parts on it that will make any kind of real difference so if you are beating a stock car already then your doing very well!
What does the other car need that is related to performance. Plugs won't make a difference I can tell you!

This is no problem at all.

The ECU will need to adapt.

You will get a real nice increase in power once the stage 3 software is on.

My car felt very 'flat and lethargic' for the first 80 miles after the header install. At 150+ miles now (still pre-software tune) it feels at least as responsive as stock with plenty of low end power. I haven't gotten to explore the higher RPM range much yet with temps here being in the high 90s & not wanting to push the car w/ the A/C on.

I wish these things were visible from above in the engine bay!! They're so amazing looking and I can't show them off @ the weekly car meet! Maybe I could fashion an undercarriage mirror for viewing underneath

just ordered myn im kinda excited haha.. The only other mod i would like to do after this is the heads.... valves etc if someone could get an ascari s62 we would have something. Ive heard theres loads of power to be unlocked in the heads but iam sure the price to unlock that including r&d would make it so high tey would call it un-obtainium....
