Right now, aside from stock... We have so far:

Stillen: Direct Stock Replacement Headers
Fast Intentions: Long Tube (Cat Delete) Headers
PPE Engineering: Long Tube (Cat Delete) Headers

Haven't heard much about Greddy headers as of yet... Anyone else wanna confirm this?

I have the Fast Intentions LTH's myself and love them. They really continue the exhaust systems ability to free your engine to breathe easier. You will lose a bit in the low end when you put them on. But this is easily corrected with a tune.

How was the install? I keep hearing 8 hours. That adds a lot of $$ to the overall purchase. WOuld you do it again? I have no intention of going FI with my Z. N/A all the way. I was waiting for VVEL to be cracked because that will definitely make LTH's a worthwhile mod.

I had my headers and CBE installed at the same time so it was on the lift once at Fast Intentions. I dropped the car off at 8am and we left the shop at 4:30pm. That included a 15 minute run session to test for leaks and let it just run and break everything in, then a 30 minute ride around as Tony explaned to me how it would sound and how to break it in and everything.

Tony is usually really good on working out deals. I think since I got the whole package at once, I had the headers installed for free with the purchase of the LTH's + CBE and the CBE Install which was only like an hour and a half. So couldn't beat that deal...

Would I do it again... Absolutely. The only question that would be in my mind is if I was in another state that did smog tests every year... if so I would have gone HFC instead. But since AZ doesn't for every car 2007 and newer, I'm good.

I will eventually go F.I. and when I do, I'll sell the headers to someone looking to go SC or stay N/A. But between now and then, I'm happy with the performance/sound of these and will stand by them anyday. Yeah, VVEL cracking hasn't progressed (publicly) as far as I'm sure the community would like, but I'm not too quick to rush with something like that. When it's done, it's done and we can all benefit, but between now and then, I like what I have right now.

Look in this section for "Fast Intentions Exhaust" and "Fast Intentions Long Tube Headers" Tony is the man you wanna talk to. He'll answer all your specific questions, and based on what you want, recommend the best CBE setup.

I already have an ARK CBE on order and waiting to see if the gb in my sig goes through. If it doesn't I might just do a CNT RTP, or LTH if I can get a deal on the install

Fast Intentions LTH's + Meisterschaft CBE here! I love the headers, when matched with a tune they have great gains.

Music to my ears. Docile enough to stay out of trouble loud enough at full throttle to burst ear drums.

I'm assuming/hoping they'll be cheaper than F.I. There's no secret to a design to get a huge power bump over F.I. so I hope their inspiration to produce them is a lower price
