There's gonna be a good amount of guys in the 12's too. I may be one of them......if the whole "other car" thing falls through.

bigger isint always better especially when it comes to primaries.
looks like install time was about the same on S&S as it was on TOG. and TOGs dont hit the firewall either. Its the EGR tube that hits if not bent out of the way.

as for the warranty thats somthing I didnt know about
last time I looked at their site they had nothing on that.

It's all good John, in the end it's personal preference that should buy headers, not what you or I tell him.

I can't blame ya one bit and I'm glad I never really delt with duane.
his customer service skills didnt exzist.
I'm sure if I had been arround when this was going on I too would feel the way you do and would never have bought from them.

The owner of TOG also realized duane was bad for business though and that is oen of the major reasons why he was fired.
but the damage was allready done.

Of course, there is where the lifetime warranty is nice. You can just send them in and get a new set! All you have to pay for is the labor to get the bad one taken off and the new one put on. I mean, from what I've heard on here, that should only run you ~$300 or so. Hmm...
4 I just had mine installed Wednesday and they had bad welds. but thanks to APOC and TOG i got a new one in 24hrs. I still havent picked up my car yet. Had a trip to DC today for class and the garage was closed before i got back
