What a wonderful process. Check it out:
I ordered the stuff through highhorseperformance.com who took outstanding care of me. Great customer service, great prices and top notch to deal with. I learned about jet coating in the process and decided to have it done. The headers showed up and not only will they keep my engine cooler, the the hot jet, MAN they are beautiful. Look like they were dipped in chrome and they will never tarnish or rainbow from heat. I had the install done at King Dodge in St Louis, MO. Again, grade A, top notch customer service. I just can't say enough about Lou Espey, the service manager. He gave me a hell of a deal on the install, allowed me to shoot the install on video, riding the tech's back (thanks Greg, you so rule), insisted that I take his Charger to lunch, then hooked me up with a Hemi Ram truck last night when they had to keep my car over night. Ran into a snag due to the Magnaflow kit being welded poorly. Some welding splatter on the inside of the kit got lodged in some sensors first time I got on it. and the car wouldn't idle after that. I had noticed this on the exterior of the kit when it came in. I painted the cans black and had to remove lots of careless splatter from both the cans and the tips. Either they have robots weld these things or somone at Magnaflow has employeed their little brother for 5 bucks an hour. No big mod goes down perfect (and I combigned two at once) and if not for the little metal weld balls that Magnaflow blessed me with, this one would have been perfect. Turned out great.
Props and thanks to all of those involved.
I hope to finish the DVD next week.
