Default Christmas gift! **MORE pics added**

So my gf totally shocked me and spoiled me this Christmas, its unbelievable! One thing that she got me, which is ITR related, since im posting it here, is a new Megan Racing 4-1 S.S header. Has a 2.5" collector and all that stuff, even came with new gaskets and stuff!
Before this, i was set on DC Sports header, but recently talkin to ppl a while ago with this same header on their ITR's, they love it, some made 3 more whp than the DC sports one, but i know it also depends on other mods too. Besides that, i can see for myself now, that the construction of this header is amazing too, nice welds, perfect finish, etc. Tomorrow im installing it on my car, i shall get more pics of it after that, but for now, here it is!

Anyone on here sporting this header on their ITR? How do you like it? ill post up what i think of it after install

Default more pics

Here are the installed pics finally, and thnks to my gf for helpin me install them , before and after i warmed up the headers.

Before starting the car and warming the headers:





After i started the car and headers warmed up, they changed into a nice gold color:





Heres the clearance from the ground:



So what do you guys think? ? ?

I cant really comment on performance yet, since my car is in storage in the garage, all i can do is just start it up, but what i can say, they are ALOT louder then the stock header, even the Jasma header i had on before.

err quick question i think i already know the answer but...

the grounding strap for JDM Rs is still on the spot on the valvecover, next to the bracket that holds the throttle cable right? or does it go where you have it now? i have seen how you have it now a few times.

Well, i never touched mine, so i would assume its a factory location where the throttle cable bracket also gets attached to the valve cover.....if im understanding your question correctly...?
