I sent a message to him asking if he has any pics of it actually on the car, that's an easy way to tell

I love the fact that you can almost use the phrases "10 hp" and "10%" interchangably on this car!

Funny how they claim 15hp and 10%. Since 15hp is 12.5%, you'd think they'd mention that instead.

Still, it'd be a new competitor if it worked...

They look like a version from OBX or Topspeed. How? Their design for the G93 Mirage. It's very similar in design and quality.

I'd be careful if that is the one for the Lancer.

The O2 sensor bung is completely in the wrong place. You would have to relocate the sensor or modify the header.

From what I've been told 4-2-1 design provides less performance gains than 4-1 design. I remember reading about that on magnaflow.com or flowmaster somewhere like that.

ive read that they do not provide as much top end as the 4-1 design. But ive also read it keeps you lower end from loosing as much. So i guess both give in some areas and take away in others. Not to mention rpws is 4-2-1 and they have had excelent gains(only ones dynoed as far as i know)
