    Wild lol

    What is the eta on shipping once payment is received? I want to install these bad boys ASAP lol
    My car doesn’t sound like a Honda and that’s the problem. When I got the car, it came with unknown headers, no cats, and a megan supremo muffler. It sounds amazing when you’re on it, but drones like mad when you’re not and is way too loud and stinks way too much. At my elevation, here in Colorado, going back to stock is not an option. I’m hoping that the increased horses from the SS v2 headers make up for the loss of hp w/ the cats. And then the street sec3 prevents drone and me from getting pulled over and a ticket when in golden/ Boulder Denver area.

    That's assuming stepped headers/sect1. You didn't mention what headers. If 55mm headers, don't bother with 2.5" sect 2.
    Oh, it'll be full SS - Stepped V1/sect1, just looking if I include a section 2 in this GB or not, but it sounds like I will be. Cheers

Anyhow enough of this financial talk let’s get back to subject in question of this thread: Supersprint headers😊

    Yup, America love buying stuff on credit. As much as I love personal finance and want to help others improve their financial health, this is a car forum.

    Let’s bring it back on topic.

    SS V1, HJS cats, and oversized resonated sec 2 for me. Should work nicely with the CSL Airbox and cams once that group buy gets going. At this rate, I’ve spent more on mods than my car when I bought it with 43k miles.

    More like wifetax evasion. Hypothetically speaking.

    My theory is - buy once pay once. Feel the burn one time. Once the new supersprint products are installed I’ll forget about the money I just dished out. The smiles per gallon will make me forget real quick

    Lots of assumptions here, and I'm not advocating this plan at all, but a rough idea.
    Where does the equation land if you change the 36 months to 4 months?

    yes, that would through a monkey wrench into the equation.

I just don’t get how people don’t seem to grasp that, yet they fight for every penny upfront, meanwhile end up overpaying more than msrp in long run. 🤦🤷

    Kinda. It will be easier for me to spread 4 to 6 payments over a couple of months vs just making one. It would be different if I needed to stretch those payments for years.
