^Thanks Jimmy! Love the Swain coating...reminds me of the white headers on the flat 12 Ferrari race motors of the 70's...

Wish you could see those headers without lifting the 4 up in the air!!

You now can actually see these headers w/o lifting car up. You can actually look thru the rear wheel and see them now. They look like spaghetti. I can tell you now that I have been driving her for two days - 4000-6000 the car rips now and has a most noticeable power gain- shocking. I think every one who has a GT4 should throw on a set of LT Headers. I am a little surprised that I can notice the difference - I thought it would be marginal - I know - need numbers. When i am all done with the IPD Plenum and Tune and hit 2000 miles I am going to get her weighed and throw her on a Dyno

^Yes you did. I can not wait to implement the tune which I have that I need to hook up and download and send to Germany. A couple things that I have noticed. Porsche did not hold the car back with the gearing because I have felt that it is fine and now that the car seems to rev quicker it even makes the gearing ideal. What they did was to suffocate this car which obviously we have all found the remedy - and it works.- Love this freakin car- It is a keeper for a very long time.
