Update: Headers are on the car and working great. I have only driven the car for 5 miles total. It's smoking a bit from the headers right now. Every time I start it the smoke is less. The headers were coated, then wrapped, then I did another light layer of sealant on the outside of the wrap. So I'm guessing one of the above is burning off. Probably the sealant I used. Probably wouldn't do that again if I had the chance.

The car sounds mean. It's louder but not by too much. I'm glad I have the 18 resignators. With free flowing FI CBE, the car would be pretty loud. There is definitely an audible hiss.

I should have pictures and videos up very soon. Spent last night helping Stephen install his ARK exhaust so it put me a little behind on my car. I was really impressed with the sound of the ARK exhaust. Stephen's car is coming together very nicely.

Video before tune. Rev'ed up to 4k. I'm a little nervous with the G3s and the LTH installed so I'm not going to push it above until I can get on the dyno and check the AFs. If they are off I will be ordering Uprev asap.

To compare this is the first video I took with just the FI CBE.
