I hope you guys are not shooting your self in the foot...

I see this long tube header as a STAGE 2 coming AFTER the Intake manifold.

I mean, must of the folks on the official list for the manifold are making compromises to be able to get the Intake.

I agree this header looks amazing, but it will be really hard for some of the people getting the manifold to add $500+ extra on top of the $700 for the Mani.
Remember that a lot of Yaris owners are running on a budget this days. Maybe I'm wrong but is my opinion.

If you get Manifold and Header out at the same time you will be limiting some how the qty of people that will be able to jump into this.

In the other hand if you concentrate in one item (Manifold), get it out and then 6-8 weeks later you have the Header out, then must of the people who bought the Intake will be buying the header.

You guys should be focusing in one major part at the time in order to make this happen and make the parts successful.
I know is great to see all the research that Richard is doing... Intake Mani, Header, Turbo.... and it makes us want to jump and grab all of them.

Just my 2 cents

There are no dates... same as with the Intake manifold and other parts been developed by Richard. It depends on the demand (and how long it will take every body to decided what they want exactly) and Richard's testing and schedule.

I understand the concern-but it was too tempting to make the extra horsepower. The headers will be available after the intake.
