lol, nice. Hey did u hear how long it was taking start up? Will having the intake fix that? I never had to hold the key foreward so long before.

im pretty sure that has to do with how the exhaust gas has to flow down a longer tube now

Yeah because before it would hit the cat right away and have instant pressure, but now theres no back pressure till the midpipe, which makes sence. But with the intake getting air in faster it might help.

Yeah, for sure man, id love to help. I use to work at the Chili's @ the loop for the past 6 months. I live down Neptune Rd. in Kissimmee.

Thanks man im sending in payment for it on friday! how long did it take protegegarage to get it to you cuz im going thru ken to get this header!

Took around 5-7 days, he was kinda busy when I ordred mine but I still got it in a week. Are you gonna come to the winterpalooza? And what else do you have done with your exhaust, anything? If thats ur car in your avatar it looks sweet. You put that bumper on yourself and where did you get that lip? Ive been looking for one. Ive never seen your car around, I really have only seen one car that looked close to being a MSP around here, well it was a MSP, a yellow one.

[jeg0024]

Fast Mazdas? Around here? I havent seen them. Let me know when you guys plan on meeting up and Ill join in if ya want. And just let me know when you get the header in and ill let you know when I have a day off or something, it only took me 2 hours but I had a air gun for the spring bolts, you got an air compressor? And your gonna need to go to NAPA or some where and get a box(2 in a box) of the 18mm long spark plug non-foulers. You have to drill one out with a 1/2 drill bit so if you dont have a drill I have a dill press here.

Aight man thats kool! im gonna sign up! as for the header i dont have an air compressor but do you so maybe we can do it at ur crib if its okay with you! Im gonna plan a little meet with these guys before the palooza so that way we can ride together and yeah il let you know when and where that way wer can ride together they are mostly mazda 3's and 1gen rx-7 but its cool to be one of the few proteges!

 

[jeg0024]

Yeah, I borrowed my neighbors air compressor. Just let me know when you wanna do it. Im planning on meeting these Tampa guys while there driving up I-4 to the meet. So if you guys wanna take the Turnpike up to I-4 with me that would be cool. Im gonna try to get the timing perfect so when I jump on I-4 they would be comming up right behind me, maybe you guys can jump on at the parkway and head up, or leave from over by my house.

 

[jeg0024]

No CEL yet...so im good? lol You know ive never had my CEL on, cool huh?

Nice man. I remember when I first installed my OBX. Took me about 2hrs also.

Now I could do it in under a half hour. All of it gets easier with experience. Man, Im going to miss this car even though I went through hell with it.

 

[jeg0024]

Thanks

Yeah, it wasnt so bad of an install with a little help and some research before hand, im sure I could do it easier if I had to do it again.

I really hate the stock exhaust spring bolts, I remember that took up the most time. They were all rusted to death.
