Stock header replacement group buy feeler (FWD & MR)

I have had a couple people come to me looking for a new header but the price for a one off is a little hard to swallow.
I thought I'd put it out there and see if others were interested.
For one header the cost would be right around $325
If we could get 5 people I could bring it down to about $280
If we could do 10 I could probably get them under $250.

I would make a jig off a 16V mani and one off a 20V mani. Both would be tubular very similar to the 20v mani but you could choose flanges and flange location to bolt up to either.
I would use the same 11 gauge tubing that I use for my turbo manifold so this should be the kind of manifold you pass down to your grand kids.
I can do EGR bungs and O2 bungs where needed per the customer.


And of course there will be a few options for the upsell.
Stainless steel for those with deep pockets
Ceramic coatings for those who want added thermal barrier, rust protection and a little added sexy.

I'd be interested in the FWD setup for my AE92. =)

Nice to see some interest in this.
I have been pretty busy the last couple weeks but this will be a pretty high priority on my project list when I get some time.

I will put a little more time into getting a solid price point for you guys.

I haven't but I have never seen a dyno of an aftermarket mani that proved to be superior to the 20v mani which is one of the reasons I would be making the mani based off the 20v mani.
