yes they offer the stock replacement y-pipe only. it is designed to work as a direct replacement and is not compatible with the one from the header system

::EDIT::
Something just came up and the timing of this group buy is really iffy for me. Depending oh when this actually takes place, I may or may not be able to have the money in time. Hopefully this is one of those neverending group buys. :lol:

Well I'll know for sure on Monday but I would love to get the whole system. Do I understand correctly that it takes at least five people to buy the exact same thing to get the discount, in other words five people would have to buy the complete system to get the discount on the complete system?

I'm not sure I'll have the money yet. I hope this group buy doesn't happen for a little bit. If this is for the complete system, I'm not sure about the 3" exhaust because of my dual catback setup. Any suggestions?
Also, for the guys in Cali, it seems like most of you aren't worried about the smog issues? I really want the headers and ypipe so I can get maximum flow with the URD s/c kit and get me up to 7-8 psi. ( :o Damn, I can't believe how expensive it's going to be to get there.)

If this GB dosen't take forever I'll be in for either the complete system or the header y-pipe system, which ever one has the most people in it.

Reading the posts, it would be a good idea to set a date a few weeks from now so maybe we can get ten people in on it (maybe). Also, that way it won't just drag on and on and never really happen. When spendig that kind of money, a 20% or 25% discount is a hell of a discount.

word...

I'd def be in if it had a set date far away when everyone is sure that they will have the money ready. If it were in a few months more then it should give everyone plenty of time to get ready instead of others who might not make it intime or end up waiting forever.

Regarding the smog issues - I talked to both Eric and Jose before I bought my set, and they told me that they could install a different catalytic converter that should have no problem passing CA emissions testing. Eric says that his passed, but barely, with the original cat that they were using. If the tester notices that you have headers in his visual inspection, though, all bets are off. I ordered mine with the alternate cat; I think they call it an OBDII cat, as well as with a quieter muffler. Neither one seemed to have had any adverse impact on performace, as I got over 271 fwhp and over 250 lb/ft of torque.

The JP Performance headers and exhaust are a very good investment if you want to maximize your power. Good quality workmanship and the results are definitely there. I give them a big thumbs up.

Thanks, cdssolara! I wish someone had a hookup for smog, where we all could go. I think it really blows that other states don't have to worry about putting on headers and stuff. I have to smog this Oct, so I'm a little worried. Decisions, decisions!! But, I think I'll still be in on this group buy, because I WANT MORE POWER! LOL!
