TO ALL-

The bending dyes are here! We are currently indexing the bends. This takes time and I ask everyone who has delivery date questions to hold them. As of right now we plan on shipping the week after next. It all boils down to how smooth the index process goes. We have gone to a six day work week to try and get this rolling.
As soon as I feel they are ready to go into production and I can gauge how long a set takes to build, I will start notifying you one by one. If you are on the list, you know what order you are in.

I will keep you all posted as soon as I have more to report...

Thank you, Tony

pg6speed · 03-19-2010, 10:19 PM

Thank you for being so pro-active with updating your customers, this and your honesty is what sets you apart from other vendors. Truely a top notch company worth every second we have to wait for your product.

If that is the case, I should have the tooling within 2 weeks from today.

From there we need about 2-4 days to play with it and get all of the bends and rotations down. Once we have everything indexed, we will begin production.

The first set of fixtures/jigs will be completed by the end of today and I hope to have the second set of fixtures/jigs completed by the middle of next week. The reason we have decided to build 2 sets is to (Hopefully) speed production up! Obviously I have not built a production set yet. So, I can only try and calculate how long it will take to build each set. I am (hoping) that 2 people can produce 3-4 sets a day. We will not be working on them every single day due to the fact that we only have 4 people including (me) and we are almost two months behind just on cat back builds. I would like to have 5-8 sets mailed out every week if possible.

Here ya go

Suh-weeeeeeeet!!!

Kolya's car is here! The manifolds are off and after lunch we will have the headers on! We went to the dyno this morning and the car made good power. 315 RWH peak and 254 FT LBS of torque! (STD)

I will post all of the dyno charts tomorrow evening after we get back from the dyno. What I can tell you is that with the combination of the Stillen Gen III intakes on the car with our HFC's and cat back, it is running too lean in the mid range. These cars need to live around 12:6-13:0 A/F! If they are too lean it will actually rob power. No biggie as long as you plan to tune the car for the intake and other mods.

Bottom line is this, when we put our prototype test numbers across the numbers from today the first car made more peak torque, mid range power but less top end. The only two differences: the prototype car did not have aftermarket intakes on it and because of that the A/F was right where it needed to be. In short this is why we made more across the board. Like I said, today we made more top end but not everywhere else!

All will be well tomorrow when we go back with the headers. We will do our best to get the A/F richer in the mid range to bring the curve where it needs to be. As far as timing, the car has alot already so we don't want to go overboard there!

Thanks, Tony

Tony, after someone comes to get a LTH + CBE Install, do you reccomend immediately going to get dyno's + tune done, or is that something that you will do in house as part of the install?

LaSeeno · 03-20-2010, 12:37 PM

Hey Tony,

Will you guys be making any headers that end where the stock cat starts?

Would be nice to get a streetable set.

OEM headers are pretty good themselves making short tubes upgrade not even worth the headache

vipor · 03-20-2010, 12:55 PM

Vegitto-kun · 03-22-2010, 05:46 PM
