Default Anyone running the PPC headers?

I'm considering these headers but don't see them on anyones cars. They definately look nice but I'd like to see how well they're liked first. Thanks for any responses.

I heard that they are the Grottyohann design wiht all emissions stuff on there and come with cats and a ypipe. I think I might be getting these.

I'm looking to purchase something very soon. I'd still like to hear from someone who actually has firsthand experience with these headers. BigBlackZ28, I'm not very familiar with the design your speaking of. Thanks for the help, though.
Anyone using these headers?

Come on now, does anybody have these headers? Does anybody know anyone with these headers? All I need is a few recommendations and I'm all over them. Thanks.

I was curious about this statement as well:
"...With Emissions..."

what does that mean? If cop stops me and sees that i relocated my stock cats, but he also sees this "With Emissions" stuff he won't bug me?

Please explain, i might be intersted in getting a set of this headers

With emissions means that the headers have hook ups for EGR and AIR components. Without emissions or race style are without them in case you decide to eliminate your AIR and EGR systems. Grot headers seem to be the best on the market as far as us making power. About 3 other people sell this same design: QTP, PPC, and Thunder Racing. I bought mine from QTP because Barry is such a pleasure to work with. He will help you out with whatever you need and the price is pretty much the same. A lot of people have the QTP ones so you can ask how they like them. But M3Eater (the owner of PPC) is the only person I know off hand that is running the PPC headers. But since they are the grot design you will see good numbers. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Thanks for the reply. The only reason I haven't gone with the QTP's yet is their lack of a y-pipe with cats. Due to the fact I hear that our cars sound awful loud without cats. I only want a clean sound, not entirely loud.
Anyways, thanks again. I still can't believe noone has these headers yet. Is it the cost?

Default Re: Anyone running the PPC headers?

Sorry for the delay in replying to this.... I've had computer problems.

There are quite a few of the PPC sets pre-sold & wiating for the final production Y-pipes. I've rejected a couple due to my desire for top quality on these.

There are a couple sets left from the first production run, that have not been pre-sold.

The seat of the pants improvement with the headers is quite noticable & sounds nice.

I'll post dyno info as soon as I have one of each of the y-pipe designs to take to the dyno ... do them all at once.

As some of you know the car was wrecked recently & that still has to be fixed too (got t-boned by a bone-head, trying to go around me on my left .... from behind.... as I was making a left turn).

Anyway.... any questions please feel free to ask.
