Hahahaha well that's a little disheartening to hear, don't know what to do if mine are likely 3+ weeks out. Chris wants an absurd amount to ship to Canada and realistically in the summer I wont have time to drive down to the states to pick them up, nor do I like to have my car down unnecessarily during that time. I was cool with the 2 month wait but wow, its like waiting for my Forgestars or my long block race motor (MR2) all over again.

I asked Stephen to inform everyone that this is a second job for me, and that I only get the evenings and weekends to build them. I'm working very hard to finish these headers along with other projects I had started before the header group buy. Thanks for understanding, and I promise everyone will get the headers they ordered... If you happen to go onto the forum, could you pass this info on? My email time is limited, only because of all of the work going on...
Cheers,
Chris

Selling my headers! Whoever wants to get their headers without waiting you can take my spot and pay me since I already paid Chris. I am asking the same price I paid plus whatever PayPal fees there are to equal $1500USD. Let me know

All,
I volunteered to be the last one to have mine ship out when I spoke to Chris, (I was number 8 on the list), so this should help.
I'm going to have Chris install them as well for me (he's a few miles from work) in his shop.
Thanks.
Alex

Haven't gotten mine...it's literally been so long that I'd forgotten what I ordered... I thought I ordered shorties...he he...and then realized that they're long-tubes. Duh.
I'm getting my brake job done on Wed. and wanted to get that knocked out at the dealer (I bought all the components) so that they'll do a complete warranty inspection prior to installing all of my go-fast parts. I'm a little worried about the headers/he/pulley/tune affecting my aftermarket warranty.

In the last email he sent me he said that the 2 month timeline was assuming 10 sets only. Now it’s up to 15 with majority wanting full exhaust and that is slowing it down.
Feb 6 we saw the first progress pics, March 25th one person had received theirs. Safe to say it’s looking like one set a month.
15 month wait if you’re at the end, damn I hope things pick up. All I can say is good thing I broke my ankle. Now I have no reason to be in a hurry.
