Whats up guys, I just recieved my headers VIA fedex international! They look awesome and very well built. They came complete with all the gaskets and hardware plus a very informative installation enstruction print out. I even got a cool looking sticker 
. I will take pics in a few minutes, I have to run out to the store and get some AA bateries and then I will post the pics.

Good news for 5th geners! The instructions say they fit 5th gens!
I will be back ASAP.

Refresh my memory. Do the headers include the Y-pipe piece? How's the weld? TIG or MIG? Is it stainless steel? aluminized steel? Damn...post the pics already..lol

Ok now to anwer the questions.
Tony, I am not exactly sure what material they are made out of but I believe it is stainless steel{I will ask and find out}. As for the weld? I don't know that either
, all I know is they are top notch looking, just as good as my Stillen exaust. The Y-Pipe is included with these headers as seen above.
Andy, I expect a good 15-20 fwhp from these headers/Y-pipe combo.
Steve, the EGR hole is incorporated in the headers designe as is the 2 o2 sensors.
Ron, they may be installed any time between tomarrow and Monday.

will they fit 5gen?
Pay attention now...he already said the instructions say they fit 4th and 5th gen maxis...I'm psyched to see the results.

He's selling the I30 I think, and he already said that they do fit the 5th gens. I guess its time for a new mod if you gain some power!

Getting the info via the Dyno before and after is crucial, its the proof in the pudding, so to speak. Keep us posted, they look good.

Hey those look really good. I think they really did a good job of making the pipes equal length. The horsepower gains with this set-up will be at least 5-10hp flywheel over just a y-pipe. I think the other y-pipe companies should have done this in the first place. I think you are really gonna notice a big difference in the top end mainly. Good luck with the install.

Ethan-
How do the directions look?
Those headers are very impressive looking. PLEASE go dyno BEFORE you install. Like Don said, this is crucial to get verified results. Also please use the same dyno to limit any bias. If you're car makes 200fwhp then I'm getting the suckers!!!!! What I really want to see is if you'll continue to make power past 5600rpms.

If worse comes to worse I can do a whole bunch of G-Tech Pro tests.
The power mods I currently have on my 95 max are as follows: Stillen Intake, RT cat, Stillen cat-back, Alluminum flywheel. I don't think I will hit 200 FWHP with just these header/y-pipe setup, I will hit 200 at the wheels once I get my G-Force ECU and UDP though

The grand total came to $618, this including 2 day shipping and all the customs charges etc. I think the price is pretty damn good because you get a Y-Pipe and headers for only $600!

There is a Dyno in Worcester MA, and also in Warren RI. I'm not sure where you live in RI so if these are close to you at all they might help. Please, Please do a before and after Dyno! If the results are good, i'll be ordering them that day.

This is quite exciting
It's always good when a new part comes out for our cars. There is finally a nother bolt on we have access to. Like everyone else, I can't wait to see the results. If this set proves itself, these things should go like hot cakes.

Nah, take a look at the way the front header is, and how long it is, there is now way you could finnagle a Y-pipe to connect those headers. you definately have to use their setup.
