i wish they would show an upshot of that collector...ive never seen anytihng like that before, and based off of that fact alone, i can tell that design is flawed. it looks as though you coule get a cycling effect if there truly is a bulge there, as the air moving around the outside of the piping will take longer to excape than air that flows straight through....

my guess is it would perform admorably in the low end, but frankly, it bassicaly looks like ****.

In addition, it is an OBD I ONLY header, and appears that it also replaces the cat.

you are basically paying for the name in this instance...cusco makes some nice parts, but that header looks as though it could definitely flow better with a different design...for the price, you could probably find a much better header, or modify an existing shitty header to get better gains...but if it's the name you are after, there ya go
