Guaging Interest: Wagner Tubular Header GB
#35
I forgot to mention I'd also be interested in the downpipe and midpipe as well, although I didn't see much on their site about it. I've currently got the Racing Beat axle-back, and I don't have to worry about emissions here in Florida. Roddimus, if you could get prices on them too that would be great!

I'm hoping to talk to Andy (fabricator) tonight.
I would love to sell packages at a bigger discount because too often mods aren't done in the right order or even at all. Purchasing the header and DP at the same time will make much better gains adding a catback or UDP's or plug wires etc.... The header alone made 7hp at the hweels. Thats a big increase considering it retained the horribly pinched factory dp and cats.
Here are some ideas I'm kicking around:
Exhaust package: Header, hi-flow DP, hi-flow MP
Cam package: Header, stage 2 cams, intake (he doesn't make one yet, but I may carry it seperatly)
Turbo Package: Wagner 6psi turbo kit + AEM ecu
the Works: intake, cams (your choice), header, dp, mp, AEM ecu.
The works package is already in....."the works"...sorry for the pun. Expect to see a dyno of this in a few weeks....and don't be wearing shorts you wouldn't want to mess up!
any other suggestions?

Ok guys this is what I have right now. This is enough to place the order. If anyone else is interested speak now or catch the next list...
I'm probably going to let you guys just send the payment to me via paypal. (3% extra fee for credit card payment...not my fault!!) and I will send the orders in Monday morning. Nick and Andy just got back in from California where they went out to AEM's testing facilities to learn all about the bonus features of the AEM ecu. Very cool stuff, but what this means is that it will take a bit for andy to fab these up. I will call Andy up as soon as I can to pin down an exact time frame. I need everyone to email me OFFLIST at "perrymuk@bellsouth.net" Include your screen name, real name, shipping address you want it shipped to and how you plan on paying (paypal prefered, but if using CC through paypal I need to know).
I'll need your exact address so I can get you the shipping quotes. I'm not sure if it's going to be a flate rate or what. Shouldn't be much though.
Thanks guys for helping to support a vendor who helps support us. THAT is what these forums are for.

Long story, let's just say we don't get along and I'm perfectly fine with that! A lot of problems arise when you have kids in charge of adults. On this forum we are moderated properly and fairly! It's not the quantity of members it's the QUALITY of members!

So if we use Paypal from our checking account, there's no extra fee? Also, we need to find out the final GB price, and see about a package deal of header, dp and mp. I'd like to eliminate one cat, which would be better, the first or second?

Add everything you want to your name and I will get you detailed pricing but the GB is only for the header. Not everyone may be able to purchase those pieces right now, but I want to get you guys the best prices and the most complete performance package.
I would suggest getting the header with the highflow dp w/ cat. By removing all restriction in the exhaust you're going to affect your torque. You will gain a lot of hp on the top end, but that low-end torque is what makes the protege so much fun. I personally will be buying the header and when I install it I will gut my pre-cat entirely. After driving on it for a while I'll get an idea for how it changed the car. If it helped then I will go out and pick up the cat-less DP in may when I visit Andy's shop.
Remember this header on a STOCK p5 with stock cats made more power than any other design that removed the cats. I wish I could do another mod for $265 and get another 7whp and 10lb/ft at the wheels. That's a lot when you think about it!
