WHAT GOOD WILL THAT DO? They never said the "shipped" it, just that they were going to. They can't give me tracking if they don't generate a label. Me asking for a number is not going to make them make the label.

I think it is more Pros*****nline FLW to be honest.

1st delay they never got the part for me because they didnt have billing information (um, I bought from them before too).

2nd delay they needed to get the part once I gave them the billing info.

3rd delay...anyone's guess. We got mishandled I think.

4th delay was averted when we saw multiple failed charges on our account and WE CALLED THEM to correct it.

So now I think they got it charged and are supposed to ship today.

So what's next after it arrives (eventually)? Will you consider carrying their product on heeltoeauto? Will you be doing dyno? Any idea how much it will cost? More expensive or less expensive than the CT's header?

so excited...

Me too!
When should it arrive this time?
You gonna post up pictures?
Hope the quality is good to decent. Hopefully better performance than the Comptech and DC and better quality than the Topspeed. Always nice to have another option for the TSX.

topspeed has the hissing flexpipe issue. i'd say that's poor quality.

DC has the hissing flex pipe issue as well...
CT has rattle problem (especially on AT)...

So both of them are of poor quality...

dude, i will tell you right now that the CT-E header is the best bang-for-the-buck.

anything lesser (DC, topspeed) requires you to fix the flex pipe. anything more, and you're talking race headers costing $700 or more.

have you even felt the 'rattle' before? it's not even a rattle. it's a shuddering that occasionally comes and goes. not to mention that members of the forum here have noted that once you switch out your oem catback, the shuddering is gone.

to call it a design flaw is a tad harsh. flex pipes separating, tearing, whistling...those are flaws or just poor design.

well.. I hope the Weapon doesn't rattle with stock catback Their dyno posted seems impressive, but that was race header with no cat. I think heeltoe is getting one that can use cat.
