[dldjros69]

Update us please....

what is the deal with the header??????

[jaxcoupe]

Errr... I don't think we're getting an update from Kyle or Josh at Stillen tonight...

[JDRosenberg07]

Relax guys SEMA just ended last week.. I met kyle and josh at the show and kyle said that they are gonna put them out as soon as they can when they get back.. we just have to be patient... i know its hard but we can do it

[kyle@stillen]

First off, it was very nice meeting and chatting with you JD. Thank you for the oppurtunity to pick your brain.

Second, we are working on these headers and we are continuing with the testing. Unfortunately SEMA projects and delays pushed us back a bit on further development. However, SEMA is behind us and we can get back to work on the testing.

The prototypes are finished, they have been for quite sometime now. We're just working testing now. The main thing is to find a way to make them without setting off any check engine lights or anything.

[jaxcoupe]

Woo! Sorry for the impatience, but all the talk about 3.5ers getting their y-pipes so soon has got me antsy!

[dldjros69]

make them without setting off any check engine lights or anything.

Are you saying there is an issue with them at the moment?

Any ballpark info on these?

no and no...

I'm saying that they are being tested. We need to make sure that they don't set off any lights and to do so we need to put a lot of miles on a car. For example the Nissan Titan or G37 and other new Nissan's will run fine for 500 miles, but at 500 miles they throw codes and get all whiny. So, we just need to make sure that there are no issues like that. It's all about testing and doing our due diligence.

As far as pricing goes, it's too early to tell yet. I haven't seen everything that's involved yet, the R&D team is still working on it so I have no clue.

[dldjros69]

Any update is better than no updates. (id like more but its ok)

It is good to have you back kyle.

thank you

[JDRosenberg07]

Yeah kyle too bad you had that meeting you had to run off to....lol but yeah man thanks for takin the time to stop and chat.

As far as the headers go.. i cant wait till theyre ready

[t0e]

will these fit the sedan ?

[JDRosenberg07]

Yes.. its gonna fit the QR25 so it will fit the coupe, sedan and i believe the sentra... doing this will increase the availiblity for demand and reduce the price for the consumer

[dldjros69]

I could be wrong here but will they fit the sentra? Then why dont sentra turbo applications match up easier. I thought there was a down pipe issue.

I know they are being tested on the sentra.

[kyle@stillen]

Hey Guys,

We are developing the headers on the Sentra only because our 2.5 Altima has been on tour with the National Guard all year. However, it's back now and it's ready for some testing.

There are some clearance differences between the Sentra and the Altima but they are easily resolved. Basically the oil pan location for the Altima sticks out a little bit further than on the Sentra. Not a big deal at all. It just means that we make the headers to fit the Altima and simply use a different B-pipe between the two cars.

Where there's a will, there's a way.

[kyle@stillen]

OK, so we had a new products meeting on Wednesday and we discussed the headers for the 2.5. They are on their way to final fabrication/production right now. We are looking at about 30-60 days before we have parts. They made some good power too!

[adidas2go]

Sounds good dude! A long awaited performance upgrade for the 2.5ers! Great news Kyle

Thats great news kyle! i cant wait till they hit the street.. Any chance to see some numbers for any of it? power or price?

[kyle@stillen]

No idea on price just yet. I would imagine that they'll be around the same price as the current headers for the 2.5 Sentra's and Altima's.

Power wise, I want to say it's around 10-12 at the wheels. Not 100% sure on that but for some reason those are the numbers that come to mind.

[JDRosenberg07]

Awesome! Any chance of a GB for the headers?

[Voodoo Coupe]

great now I really need a second job!

[ItsEcko06]

great now I really need a second job!

+1

i hopefully can save up money for a cat back and the headers. cat back is so spensive. i'd like to get a full exhaust setup at the same time (headers and cat back) to se a noticable difference. just as i would like to collect all my suspension parts (stabilizer bar, endlinks, strut) and have them all installed at the same time to see a big difference. i just get to excited and couldn't stand seeing them in the box and waiting for the install!

You guys should know us well enough by now to know that we always run group buys hahaha...I don't think you guys would buy anything if it wasn't arranged througha GB haha.

We usually don't do group buys on new products however I can see what we can work out with the manager's.

[mikegtr06]

so will this be just a header or header and race pipe combo ? is it going to be for " off road use only " ? thanks

[noshift]

after christmas im gonna pick one up for sure, group buy or not. i think its def time for another mod

[JDRosenberg07]

Thats not.... ummmm entirely true..... hahaha jk

Thanks kyle.. you guys are great.. However regardless of GB i wil be getting these headers as soon as my wallet allows..lol

I think it is gonna be a header B-pipe combo that eliminates the cat if i remember correctly but ive been wrong before.

[DGoldcoupe]

is it going to be for " off road use only " ? thanks

yes that would be helpfull to know also

[dom_cull]

so whats goin on with the 2.5 headers?

[dldjros69]
