I have been in contact with megan racing and recieved this reply common guys help out.

here was my message
""""Recently I have been hearing a lot of good things about your
company and I have also noticed you low pricing. The problem I have like so
many others of my friends is only one company makes headers for my car.
Their name is JP Performance and they charge 1600 dollars each. Te car is a Toyota Solara gen 1-1.5. Many people on Http://www.solaraguy.com are very interested in V6 headers but only a few have been willing to pay 1600, although I have meet many willing to pay normal reasonable prices. I was wondering if it might be possible to arrange a group buy. I can imagine that if you offered us a more affordable solution that you would see great
sales sense your ONLY compation charger near 5x what I have scene your
accord and other V6 headers being sold for. I would appreciate a reply in
either case.""""



His E-mail
""""""""""""
Thanks alot for your email. We are very interested to bring in this
model. However, we need you and other members to help us out. We need a
set of OEM headers! Do you think possible if you can help me out to ask
whoever already installed after market headers and have no use with the
stock one? We can buy the stock one and we will make new ones for you
guys.....for sure, the first group of people from your club will be getting
the best price....appox..around $400-500 the most per set..we will see, it
can be lower if we make more....if you can help me out to get a set of stock
one, we will definitely make alot for you guys.

I checked out their web site and the odds look good. I mean, if they will make a header for a Kia Rio, they'll surely make a set for us V6 Solaraguys, lol. If I had a set of OEM headers laying around, I'd be happy to help ya' out. Unfortunately, I'm using mine at the moment :(

Depending on the final price, quality, and resulting power gains, I may be interested in a pair once they hit production.

The price 4-500 but for the first batch he said we could get a discount, also this is not just a group buy it is going to be production. so lets get this moving.

Hard to say sense no one has tried them on the solara. I can say on my friends v6 accord it was more than his cai exhaust and highflow cat together.

So if you're an engineer you went to college therefore you should know how to spell :D . But nevermind it doesn't matter. I'm in on the group buy and I don't have an extra set of headers.

Wow.

But in the light of everyone's ambitions (or complete lack thereof) and noone's money/followthrough I don't think this will look good right now until you can get a cvommitted list going a decetn amount opast 5 people.
