This pic is from the prototype that was completed yesterday. This is also a pre-production header. All of the production headers will be ceramic coated and look beautiful. HotShot told us first to second week of January and they are right on. We should be getting our shipment in before too long. These should make better power since HS uses a longer-tube design that Stillen.

 

heh, you mean these headers will actually offer gains?!!


:]

 

How much are these selling for?

 

Are they going to release one with a cat?

 

let the spending begin again...hopefully these will offer gains as they did on the altima.

 

Pricing should be below $600. There will only be one version available and that will bolt onto the cat.

 

can't wait

how much hp will the 3.5 lose with these headers?

 

aww come on jjames, lets not post like that. we're suppposed to be trying to encourage people to bring the goods to us, not down talk the product. lets wait and see how these perform, then we can hhate or congratulate...

 

hahahaha...come on....let's have some hope, eh?

 

alright, alright. my bad. i don't even have a 3.5. maybe it's just my "power envy" talkin'

 

Couple of questions. How is it that Stillin was able to use the same headers on both the Altima and the Max, but Hotshot has different versions for each car? Also, how come Hotshot only produced one version for us whereas they produced 2 for the Altima? Am I correct in assuming that you have to have bungs welded in after the main cat in order to avoid throwing a CEL?

 

Will these fit the 4th gens?

 

mmm will these be out by february? my gf gonna have to buy me this....

 

They should be out within 2 weeks or so hopefully.

 

where will i be able to get a set of these

Less than $600??!! That's unbelieveable, now we just gotta hope for some decent gains.

Will they make them for the 3.0 as well?

Irv, that was some cruel sh*t to do to Kloogy, ooouch, nutkick, hehe.

 

Same questions here...

 

Why do you guys think that Stillen used the same headers for both the Altima and Max? I also would like to know the answer to the second question.

 

Stillen was able to use the same design by using shorter length primaries and Hotshot used longer. Clearance between the Altima and the Maxima was different with long tube headers which is why there are different part numbers from Hotshot. Hotshots kits provide everything needed to keep the check engine light off, but I don't know what all they will include yet.

 

So will they fit 3.0?

 

Thanks for the info.

 

I'll be taking my header off soon, so I can compare a Cattman for a 3.0 to a Hotshot for the 3.5 and I'll let you know.

 

hoping for some good gains with this header...and the price you can't beat that...

 

Less than 600 sounds better than 750 for cattman headers.

 

You wouldnt happen to know if these will fit on the 04 maxima would you??

 

No idea, but I'm sure one of the two manufacturers will look into it before too long.

 

YESSSSSSSSS!!!

 

All i have to say is that i cant not wait for these to come out. If there is good results from them then i will be adding them to the mod list.

-lv6speedmax

 

-J

 

So,let just hope this show some gain like the Alti 3.5.

 

if they do... i'm gonna have to get buy these and sell my ypipe

 

..........

 

.....anxiously awaiting.

 

Nissan performance mag got 17whp w/ their HotShot header-equipped stick Altima. If we can yield said results for $500 that would be awesome. Any issues w/O2 sensors ??? Approx install time ???
