Re: cel?
the incorrect/inaccurate/layman's term for "check engine light".. the official and correct and accurate term is "MIL" for "malfunction indicator light"

Okay guys, I'm back. The header I made can be seen here: http://www.geocities.com/traveler12820/robsprotege.html
Look under the link for 'ceramic header pics'. And yes, I did dyno it. 7.8 lb/ft of torque max, and from 3-6 HP all through the RPM range. Also, after a couple tanks of gas my mileage went up to 35 MPG. I've had it on the car since early last summer when I built it, and I get lots of compliments when people see it. I get 29-30 MPG in town, and I get 35-36 on the highway. The prices I quoted were a bit high for some people I know, but it takes me 5-6 hours to make one by hand. I can probably get a bit better deal on one now as I've been able to source the flanges a little cheaper. Still, it will be about $470 for the polished ceramic coat, and $435 for the colored finishes. There is a post somewhere where it's all listed. Hell, people are paying $315 for the a header that doesn't even have a decent finish on it. The coating on mine is inside and out and thick.

Dude its nice to hear from you again. That is a very nice looking setup, and impressive gains for retaining the stock converters, downpipe, etc...I am very interested...
