I dont know if I should say I'm interested.... I really want to get the full system all at once, that's why I was saving for the JPP. But you said that headers would only come out depending on the success of the cat-back. If there's a way to get the 2 at once, I'm definately interested.

Just get the exhaust now because if they use the stock style flanges than the JPP Headers and Y-pipe will bolt right up to it

The list is just for 'interest' We need a number of how many people will be interested. We will use the stock flanges for use in cat-back mode, when we come out with headers (if) and a Y-pipe replacement, then we'll also use stock flanges on there for people who want to keep the stock exhaust or bolt directly to our aftermarket exhaust. Again, the list is just for interest. I'm going to post audio files and pictures when everything is said and done, we just need to know how many people are looking into it.

Oh, one other thing, mention if you're looking into the dual or single out system.

The exhaust system is a cat back, the second Y bend will be after the initial Y-pipe. There is no need for further cats, we will have a smaller resonator in the piping for sound quality. The Y bend will be using mandrel bent piping and allow for even exhaust flow through both pipes so both tips and mufflers are 100% functional.

The overall goal of this is to create not only a customer base, but enough income to generate more parts. After seeing posts like "My CAI made my car 100x better than before!" I'd really like to get some true aftermarket parts out for these cars. I'd like to see the look of a Mustang driver or a turbo'd si when the Solara roars past him :D.

There isn't space to make a good true dual, plus a true dual would be a bit more expensive. Plus most if not all FWD V6's do not have a true dual, we're one of them. It has been talked about many many times before. So that's pretty much the sum of it.
The exhaust we have planned to produce an extra ~12hp and combined with headers would make it to around an extra 20-25hp (just a guess).
