  I though I should ad a little to what I wrote the other night. I was 
speaking to Mike at Mountain Automotive about the issue of manifolds and 
lack of a good header for a reasonable price. Now lets think about this 
for a moment. Does it cost $2000 to make a high-quality set of SS 
headers. Simply put, heck no. Mike told me he would consider taking up 
the project if I could prove to him their was a market. Does he know 
exhaust theory? Most definitely. Mike is a mechanical engineer and a 
perfectionist. If he does this he will do it right. He is not going to 
make cheap headers!!
So, the question is: Who would like a set of SS headers for their I5-turbo
10 valve that won't crack, will increase performance, and will be priced 
REASONABLY???
Keep the responses rolling in and if I get enough responses this may happen.
