I try to explain to everyone that my products aren't for everyone. The materials alone to make each tri-y header is over 900.00 at that's at my wholesale pricing. Each header takes about 2-3 days to make so about 20 hours so your getting my labor for about 35/hr.... seems kind of cheap to me

Also doesn't include the 250cfm bottle I go through with backpurging each header or any other material costs like sanding belts, filler rod, cartige rolls etc haha. If I could make them for cheaper I would sell them cheaper, but its just simply how much it costs to make one.

A quote from the builder. Stainless is expensive.

that means his profit margin sits close to the 20% range.

Well i just figured it would be more affordable since its made in the U.S that way they buy here instead of Toda,5zigen, apexi and other overseas companies that make header for the 86...

some of his stuff takes alot of hard work time and attention to detail but still 1300 bucks for a header?!?!?! ill take my ebay one....maybe one day when i can throw 5,000 on a turbo and 40,000on a motor and 10,000 on a sequential tranny i might consider his prices. but i think i could find someone locally to build it with the same materials a little cheaper.
