Headers
Is anyone using a HP Racing header for a 2001 and up ES sedan or on a P5? I just want to know what happens with the cat, I'm looking at buying a set and need to know if the cat stays or if you have to move it or replace it.

Fed Ex tied to leave me a package today, but damn it, I wasn't home. The only thing I'm expecting is the HP header I ordered from Rishie. It is supposed to replace both stock cats and contain it's own hi-flow cat in the tail piece. It will also have a defeater for the second O2 sensor to trick the OBDII. I'm putting it on my P5 as so as I get it. I'll report back with pictures when that happens. Don't bother asking me to dyno the damn thing though.

I just ordered one from Total Performance in Toronto. Should be here next thursday, they said that first they have to ship them from their warehouse in the US.
As soon as their here and on the car I'll let everyone know how they work. Just in case anyone else
wants a pair to try and see if it's what you want, just give David a call at 1-(888) 202-3335.
and tell him your from the Protege Club so you can get them for $310 plus tax and shipping.

NOPI is also selling them, but I believe they're only selling the shorty CARB legal ones. Rishie was taking preorders on the shorties and racing headers a while back. Last I checked with him, he said he expected the racing pipes anytime. Today Fed Ex brought me a stack of paper work from work. Damn it all!
Rishie claims to have worked out a priority advance order from HP and should be the first to have them. $375 for the ceramic coated racing pipes. I trust him, and will give him my business without a second thought, after he worked me the killer deal on the Volk LE37's and Proxes.

The HP headers I ordered are from NOPI, Total Prefromance is the Canadian dealer for NOPI, anything on NOPI.com they can get and there's no boarder crap to deal with plus I pay Canadian cash .

I ordered the chrome headers off the nopi site, when they get to David he tell me if they are racing or shorties (we think that their the shorties) but to me I DON'T CARE I just want headers that don't mess up the computer 
and look good.
and look good.

If they were available I'd surely have one. I'm awaiting for HP to send me a demo so I can dyno it and give you the figures before you drop the cash.
I figured and have been asked that this is what guys want. HP knows to contact us to be able to research the product as well as it's integrity before we will add it to our lineup of JDM products for the most part.
I'm as well as the company's philosophy are "picky mo fo's". If I haven't gotten it, nobody better have it. They know to go through me to give them a thumbs up from our side to sell the product.
After this week, I'll know that HP is giving me us a run around. At that point I'll know how the company is and whether they've been bullshitting me. At this point I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt that they're upgrading the system to produce better results.
BTW, is that in CAnadian or US dollars dkfracing?
Thanks, Rishie

They are shorty headers
I e-mailed Nopi and got a reply that said the ones they sell retain the cat because the otherwise it would be illegal. I guess their primary market is street tuners rather than competative racers.
