They won't make a fraction of the profits off these headers that they would normally see with their "elite" clientele. They could kill this project, refund the $$$ and never miss a beat. There is no "gold mine" with Crossfire owners. 90% of Crossfire owners want something for nothing -- a champagne taste and a beer budget. Ask me how I know...

While it wouldn't be the best option for us for Speedriven to abort the mission, headers can be made. It's not like we're making custom transmissions for these cars. VRP made the very headers Speedriven is copying/using as a template. The design is identical, and apparently they aren't making much power (just as the VRP ones did not). Three pipes per side, make them fit, hope for power.

I refuse to walk on egg-shells with any business that is taking my money. If they see it fit to kill the project, that's their choice. I'm not going to beg for a product from a company, no matter the application. I "need" these headers like I "need" a piece of cheesecake. Our POTUS insists we're still in a "recessed" economy. So, someone out there is thirsty... Someone will make it a priority. You only get good service from a company that NEEDS their customers. Once a company crosses the line from "fishing for clients" to "clients approaching them and forming a line", service level often drops.
