Default Christmas!

I recently have been researching this kit. I've heard it has a few flaws, it's tough to get a review from people... they either love the difference or hate it and wish they threw the money into something different for their S maybe some of you guy can give me a little insight on the kit. If not I wanna buy a Megan Header which do I chose to treat myself too?

I've never seen a dyno for the Megan. What did it put down?

j's is really great AAA++, if u have the money and wouldnt mind spending about a thousand for headers..if i have money at the time i will get j's header, but i didnt. and then i found out that the megan racing header is a j's copy or replica, 2inch primary and 2.5 collector...i would get the megan racing header and still has money for some final gears....

and i read in this forum that the megan header really gain some power as proven by a dyno, i dont have link but i read a while back. megan racing has dyno sheet on their site for their s2k u shud check it out.

I'd get the header. An ETD and strut bar just seem kind of useless.

you need a header back to complement the header, otherwise I think your not going to feel a difference, unless you get a test pipe at the same time, but i think for a DD keep the cat.

The J's header will make a good amount of difference. The ETD will help to reduce engine flex so the car will benefit in power transfer to the wheels.
