Thought I'd let you all know.

And now?

Seems we can't get enough of the "2 weeks" speech huh?

All I can do is pass on the word that I get from the manufacturer.

It's a reasonable delay. In another thread it was reported that the headers were more complicated than anticipated. I'm willing to wait if the results are good.

There was never a version with pre cats included. At one time a version with a main cat was in the works. As far as sound, it's hard to say. Their are some sound clips of the hotshot headers on Altimas.net. They sounded pretty good to me.

We installed a set of HotShots an a 3.5 5 speed Altima and the sound was one of the best sounding Nissans I've ever heard. I can only assume the same awesome sound will be there for the max.

I would never put a Stillen product on any of my cars. This goes faaaar back like 7 years ago on my own SE-R where I lost HP with their "cams". From what I heard Stillen Visa/MasterCard is worth 15WHP in any car as long as U keep it in your wallet. Plus I hate superchargers- I own 2 SR20DET powered cars with enough power to run down any SCed Maxima, I wanna turbo Max or NA. No blowers for me.
