This will bolt right up to stock exhaust, have option for cat or catless d.p. versions and even catless RACE SERIES with have CEL eliminator so........... Wait till you see production. First prototype finished today. Need to make a jig, then testfit part off of it then it is on!!

Now I know that RRM would never do something like that, but regardless of who it is, when someone goes back and contradicts something they previously said, I think it's more then reasonable to expect an explination as to why. As you can see, ROCK gave a perfectly logical one.

Once, Mitsu changed d.p. mounting etc.. it became clear that a 4 to 1 header d.p. would make big numbers on the Mivec and would resolve issues with production changes Mitsu made. Now we are thinking outside the box a bit and we have had this wating in the wings for a while but it was lower priorirty than turbo. We are done with turbo guys for now so we are back on the N/A trail. Prices are unclear now but we can afford to kill competitiors pricing so let them post a price first............

Get well soon and good luck with physio.
Kericr - I'll jump in and answer your questions. First off, this won't work with the downpipe, as it will have it's own downpipe integrated. People who currently have the RRM downpipe will just have to sell it off if they want the header. Secondly, production should be soon. I think you missed the post where ROCK stated that they just need to make the jig, ensure it works, then they're ready to go. If they make it a priority, I don't see why they wouldn't be ready to go in a couple weeks. Depends on their customer volume on installs, I suppose.
