    No, a matrix owner prototyped them for that company and he said they were crap. They kept leaking and the quality wasn't that good.

    We just had a GB on JP headers for $265 each, too bad you missed out cause they will be a lot more soon :cry: Has some darn nice gains on a S/C car though :twisted:

    ELP does make good products. I hope the ELP header is good b/c I just bought one myself. Plus, they're on clearance for $200 right now. Email is ELPROTO@AOL.COM.

    I emailed ELP to see if I need new exhaust gaskets. I was told no - that the original ones are okay to use?????? I'm not certain about this and believe I'll give the original ones a try, but your friend may want to replace the existing gaskets if he hasn't done so to cure this. Just a thought....

    It's pretty easy. The hard part is cracking loose the 2 bolts at the pivot joint... It's a tight spot with the 14mm key. Removing passenger side wheel helps. It aint so bad.
