i think the finish is cool, but it seems like alot of work just to get the exhaust "tuned" in spec... i mean thats a little overboard in my eyes... unless your a professional racer. and they are more expensive than lpp's or ebay specials...id vote no, but if you want to do that work be my guest..

i dig the titanium finish though if that doesnt rust up or burn off that looks pretty cool.. but i dont think thats worth it.. why are you worried about headers when you dont even have a bottom end!

WTF, looks like a huge mess of piping and spark plug access from hell.

Open headers for race cars anyway so tuned length is a farse.

For that price just go with the LPPs (or eBay knock-offs).

Given that twisted, tangled mess of tubing, I don't know if "give a **** about us" is the phrase I'd choose.
