I'm in this one like Flynn, as long as it can wait until January like several other people have marked beside their names.

Also, if I'm understanding this correctly the header will come with a custom mid-pipe, but that leaves the question of where does the mid-pipe end? And in my case I'd be planning to get a custom SuperTrapp muffler center-mounted with a down-turn tip so it's semi-stealthed, would I be better off without the mid-pipe and just getting the exhaust custom crafted behind the header?

Or would a tuneable SuperTrapp be unlikely to realize any benefits in combination with this exhaust header? Was thinking being able to run a louder but much less restrictive exhaust at the track, but a vastly more quiet and restrictive setting for daily driving.

The mid pipe for the long tube will attach to the factory (or after market) axle back section. Anything custom will have to be done by you.

That's fine, wanted to ask just because I'm paranoid.

Would there be any benefit in going with a SuperTrapp-style muffler (uses a series of stacked plates at the end to allow very fine-grained tuning of the restrictiveness of the exhaust, takes about 10 minutes to change the number of plates from about 4-20 as a limit) paired with the long tube? Or would that extra $200-300 be better spent on other components elsewhere?

I've run the Super Trapp muffs on another application and liked them. They were adjustable for street/race use bu they would have to be custom fit to mid pipe.

Is that including shipping? If not if I can get it shipped to Phoenix Arizona for under 600 then add me to the list. Turbo kits look like waaaay too much of a hassle for a DD. Evantually I can add the blitz S/C and really have some fun

Custom work's fine, there's plenty of places out here that I trust to do exhaust fabbing if nothing else.
