Start of K2 Header Install - ICS Performance, Stamford CT

Guys -

Figured I would show a day by day progress of my Kleeman Headers being installed by George and the good folks of ICS performance in Stamford, CT.

Great install, ICS is a top notch shop especially what they do to their E36 M3s and BMW platform.

The install only took 8hours. I didn't get a chance to post pics till late last night.

The price for install was the best around. I would reach out to George and talk to him for some premium pricing.

Met a couple of the ICS guys at ATCO last year - really nice guys, track-testing an Evo X development car IIRC (maybe a Subie, but pretty sure Evo... it was awhile ago). Again, nice guys - I'd heard of them prior, due to their M3 turbo builds.
