What about those traction bars? They're pretty simple to make, which is why I'm gonna end up making my own set if no one else can.
I'm also interested in the roll cage. Something that can be welded together, not the ricey bolt in kind that isn't NHRA approved.

maybe im wrong but if you make a intake manifold and BBTB with of course the AIRram compatible brace then you can suck a lot of people in because iv been a victim of what others have, and thats the SSAuto Chrome flex pipe being too short, and just getting screwed at the engine shop for some slight modifications. So i think if you could make a BBTB, Intake Manifold and possibly headers all under the same name and have them tested rigerously on dyno and all then youll have something no one else can offer. I may only be saying this cause im in the market for all these parts but i really think that Tiburons cant offer much in that area, the parts come and go you know.
Oh and exhaust that we can trust. Iv gone through like 3 already and all i wanted was a nice sound, which right now i still dont have. I need to be able to look at my car, even when the engine is purring and say DAMN b****

Headers are already on their way and as for the others...theres a list of things of importance already. and as for exhaust youve gone through 3??? if you want just a nice sound get 2.5" catback with a magnaflow. sounds great. i have a clip on here somewhere. topic title is "pic request"

Word
The nicest sound comes with the OEM exhaust manifold and changing only the catback for a larger (2,25") pipe and a Magnaflow or a SummitRacing 2,25" SS muffler.
If you want a header for performance reasons, then you will have to:
1) accept that it will buzz a little on idle or high rpm (depends on each setup actually)
2) buy at least two long glasspacks and install them right after the header flexpipe(that's what I have)

i have the SSAutochrome 4-2-1 header and it sounds alright... there is buzzing at high rpm's but nothing too terrible (i have a resonator to help with the noise) but other than that it isnt too bad. I would just like to see some good quality products from someone we can trust (Chris) who is one of us... and i would also like to see those strut bars!
