Default Installed Jethots on '02 Zo6 :rock:

I'm posting for a friend because he doesn't have a computer, he just got the new Jet Hots put on his car today. I know they are so new that the people on this forum don't know too much about their performance so thats why I'm posting. He is running his stock cats still but says that their is a definate SOTP difference. He guestimated about 3 tenths. He ran 12.2 box stock and he is confident its in the 11s all day long. He also has had an NX 150 shot for a couple years but has not sprayed it since the header install because he said their is no need for the juice with the added performance of the headers. So overall, for the price of these things, I think he paid about $600 for them, he strongly recommends them to fellow corvette owners.

We really want to know how was the install. On another thread it looked like it might be a hard install, cutting/ fitting for stock cats?

They are identical to the TPIS header, great price from jet-hot.Some high flow cats and an x pipe and he will love them more...

Alright I ordered the Jethot headers last weekend and they arrived yesterday. the headers are very nice!!! they come with the Sterling Silver coating (in & out), giving the headers a little bling bling look!!! Installation and tuning coming around this week. I'll post those numbers later. Here are some pics of the headers:

Installing long tube headers regardless of brand is no walk in the park.The following are tpis instructions. http://www.tpis.com/Instructions/Ins...ctions%202.htm some models will connect to stock cats some will not. It took Brian Tooley of TEA a month to get his headers and exhaust fitted on his C5
