ZXTuner probably would speed up the development process if people sent them emails about their contour header. *HINT* *HINT*
Rob at ZXTuner is a good guy to deal with and if he knew there were defitnitely people waiting to buy a ehader, he would spend more time on it instead of ZX2 or Focus or Escape parts development.

i think all they need is a couple more people to preorder (ZXTuner) before they finish the deal...
I was just thinking though, shorty headers would allow the use of a high flow cat

I thought zxtuner didn't even have a cougar to test fit on.  And screw shorty headers and screw catalytic convertors, nobody needs that stuff.

The flex pipe? That's so when the motor moves and shakes and stuff, it doesn't rip out all the mounts on the exhaust. You've got one, I've got one, everybody's got one.

I know I do, I just thought it was the cat...its because of the term "cat-back" exhaust that messed my brain up.
but it all makes sense now.
I wonder who sells a high flow flex pipe?

We don't really need a flex pipe (atleast I don't).
No solid exhaust mounts, just big rubber bands that have enough flex.

I was thinking about that after I typed it,
with no cat, which was securely bolted to the engine,
a flex pipe is definately needed.
