MBH E55/CLS55 Headers Group Buy

Ok, Boys and Girls, a while back I was contemplating to get a set of headers made for my E55 by a local shop, but after talking to the shop and much thinking, I don't think it'll worth it. Plus shortly after that I discovered that MBH have some headers very close to what I want, so why not give them a try. MBH even go as far as warranty if you don't gain 40whp over your set up they'll refund your money. MBH is a sponsor on MBworld too, so it's a win-win situation. I figured I owe it to them to try their headers out. The detail of the group buy is below via Hooleyboy.

"Group buy info for 4 sets.. If you get get to 6 buyers then I can knock the price down even lower. The cost would be $3100 and then $40 for shipping. Headers include test pipes with 02 bungs and a set of vband clamps. If you can get 6 or more I can do $2999."

Please let get this rolling. These are couple good points of why getting the headers is a good thing for your car

-The headers will help your car breath a lot easier.
-They'll free up the horsepower that's already there, unlike an over size pulley that make your engine and supercharger work harder.
-The car will sound a lot better too.

I'll be the first on the list:

3. Three hours labor @ $95.00 per hour.

Send me e-mail address for pics and i'll send pics tomorrow, i'm working a 24 hour shift and don't get off until tomorrow. They did a very neat and clean job. I purchase the x-pipe and cats and had them installed on the car using my existing pipe. Some pipe was added to custom fit the x-pipe, the primary cats were cut removed and replaced in the exact location with hi-flow cats. I had two quotes. One shop wanted $600. just for labor but i couldn't see it taking more then 3-4 hours labor.

eurocharged is selling long tube headers for $1999... is there a significant difference between the two that is worth the extra $1000?
