info direct from POWERTECH would be most interesting to hear... and a picture of the EXACT header that is supposed to fit our car would be nice. its possible that it might be just like the SHORTY header that is like the DC and HP (4-2-1)... but who knows... someone get on the phone.

Just got off the phone with Carlos, the owner of powertech cool guy. He is installing the header on his car this weekend to do dyno tests and he will be sending me an email with photos and sound clips of the exhaust. CAN'T WAIT. He is also going to call my cell during the weekend and let me know first before he sends the email as to how everything is going to turn out with it.

I CAN'T WAIT these guys actually sound like they are in for real performance gains, Carlos' 2k1 Civic is PHAT. you gotta check it out on www.cbwheels.com webpage, he is in the gallery and he has a blue civic dropped with rims, tails, and an axle-back powertech exhaust.

I'll Let you all know what I find out from him.

Joe

Ok this is Carlos,and yes i did speak with jdog. Ok the headers look like the dc sports 4into1 one piece ceramic headers. We just got them in, so we are going to test it on my civic and make sure it works just fine, I need to know how many people are interested because we only got 20 in for the moment.

Even so if the gains weren't that good then he should still post the dyno, he would be the only company that actually produced a dyno sheet for their headers. That way somebody has actual proof of what the car did on the dyno. That alone is what I am looking for, I mean how tough is it to scan the dyno graph and post the pic on the web, the guy is a super member and all so it isn't like he has to make a logon for that specific reason or anything.

sorry to burn this product, but if its like DC, then its prolly going for the CARB approved design, meaning it will have VERY INSIGNIFICANT GAINS. its sad to say, but it looks like the only header with potential for our cars is the HP 4-1 Race header design. with a shorty header such as the DC, Powertech, etc... there wont be any real gains, so dont get your hopes up to high, even if they do pull a DYNO session with the headers.

Guess it's back to the drawing board. Don't want to sell anything that doesn't have much gains. We have too many headers out like that. HP 4-1 with cat all the way.

Ok about the headers they are like the DC sports when it comes to the finsh of the header now they look like the hp but not chrome. I have not been able to put on the headers cause we have had no time. But we have sold like 12 and have had no problem yet.
