The Hyper has always had one of the top flowing designs, at the expense of a more polarizing aesthetic style of twin can.
Yes, regarding the headers, that's been a huge issue, right? The original Stillen headers were decent at the time, but with only poor quality copy rip-offs only existing these days it's no wonder people have lost faith in the performance benefit of them. We need a new design that has been properly researched and engineered to help extract a bit more from this engine. Interestingly enough, I've never seen a longtube style available for this car w/ it's own mid-pipe cat/de-cat section. I guess the shorty designs are more popular to adapt to already owned cat/decat sections.

I'd just like to say that changing the front rack bushes is a really pain in the arse!:mad:
It took just a couple of hours to replace the front & rear drop links & also the front ARB bushes.
It took a whole lot longer to replace the rack bushes, or should I say the rack bush.
The passenger side takes 15minutes to replace, the drivers side is the problem.
Very awkward, getting the old bush out was a PITA, fitting the new one was a PITA, getting the bracket back on was a PITA!:cursing:
The only tip I have is to leave the passenger side unbolted as it allows the rack a small amount of movement which helps only a little.
Ah well, another couple of jobs well done, slow but sure.:)
