    for $340 its a great deal.

    wondering what kind of feedback people may have if they have installed one yet by itself?
    ive talked to matt so i have a good idea on what to expect.
    i would like to see what peoples butt dyno is telling them.

    I have the header and had him clean and flow match my injectors. When I got my injectors back they flowed within 1/10th of each other and they looked brand new. Matt also has pics and a video on his facebook of himn cleaning injectors if you are curious as to what is involved.

    what all is involved does he simply clean them.
    or does he flow test them and enlarge each opening barely to flow the same?
    i havent heard the process explained.
    maybe ill ask him next time on the phone.
    He cleans them and ensures that they emit fuel in an even spray, and all injectors matched for flow rate.

    How much is he charging for that service?
    I didn't see a thread but Tom mentioned 85$+ shipping.

    My plan is to get the header/cam/fpr/balanced injectors all at once and probably have them put in by DAE. I'm still waiting to get paid for my last 2 jobs before I can finalize the plans, but I can hardly wait

    Hey im the first one with an aspire to acquire his header .
    It should work well on the aspire since its has the different gearing compared to the festiva.
    Will probably do good in the torque dept.
    I got it last week with the adjustable fuel pressure regulator.
    I already have a new catalytic converter, muffler, and secondary round muffler for the "resonator".
    Going to try and have it installed by the end of the month.
    Just wanted to say that this header is very well put together.


    I was playing around with my longtube today and comparing it with the stock manifold and downpipe.
    I decided to take my hair dryer and flow air through the individual pipes to see how well it worked.
    so I started out with the header from matt and i put the hair dryer on each cylinder tube and felt how it came out of the collector.
    Then i took an envelope and put it over all the other 3 cylinder pipes and with the hair dryer running through one of the tubes.
    The scavenging effect it produced created negative pressure on the other 3 tubes and vaccuum held in place the envelope.
    Which is the kind of results expected from a tuned header.

    Then i went ahead and proceeded to do the same process with the stock manifold and downpipe to compare flows.
    As i covered the other 3 cylinder tube holes with the envelope and started blowing the air into the one pipe still open.
    The air going into the manifold was creating positive pressure to the other 3 openings and was actually blowing the envelope off of the manifold.
    Even with the downpipe open through the whole process.

    So its no wonder our cars have to work so hard to breathe.
    Cant wait to have this all installed with a new 2" exhaust.

    you should do the same with a Festy manifold as well, you may find a signifigant differance seeing that cyl 1 and 4 dont' oppose eachother with the festy unit.
