    Default SKYACTIVE HEADERS!!

    Received this from someone today, we'd been talking about finding a company to do a set of headers for the skyactiv's and he finally got a response from one of the companies. If you're interested in a set of headers for your Skyactiv, read on. This is ONLY for skyactiv owners.

    CALLING INTERESTED '12 and '13 MZ3 SKYACTIV OWNERS
    I have emailed MSDS and gotten a response from the President of the company. He is willing to do a limited production run if we can meet the requirements. Note, this header will be ceramic coated, be the header and flex downpipe, and WILL NOT have a CAT on it, so those that require for smog test will not pass.
    Here is what we need:
    1. 25 person minimum commitment. No money needed until production of the headers.
    2. Someone local (Glendale, CA) or willing to travel to MSDS and be the donor car for them to design and prototype the headers.
    Design, Prototype, and Production will take 3-4 weeks from start to finish.
    Pricing will be the same/similar to the current MSDS gen-2 Mazda3 header kit.
    Please PM your name if you are willing, and sure you want to do this. I will update regularly from names here and on forums. If you message me in one place, please don't message me in another place so that I can keep names straight!
    If you are interested, don't pm me, my inbox is full. Just start a list here and I will update the person who is organizing this.


    Mods, can you keep this post updated with the full list of names please?

    25+ might be pretty difficult especially considering the no cat installed but good luck. Pretty cool of MSDS to offer this.

    Will keep the names organized for you

    Just get a tune to get rid of the CEL you will throw and don't worry about the CAT.

    Thanks! Yeah, the no cat part might make it a tougher sell, but people should be aware that this has been posted on many mazda forums and facebook groups. So don't let the 25 people requirement phase you, should be relatively easy to hit that number. So if you're interested sign up!

    Add a high flow cat to your mid pipe and you won't have a problem. I'm running Catless headers, High flow cat and corksport cat back exhaust and I pass the test.
    Modifications? I've forgotten more than I remember. Click here for the list.

    Perfect for me, don't need an etest anyways.



    Would they actually need a car? Or just a manifold, I probably have one of those laying around.

    To build the prototype they do. They need to take measurements and readings, do diagnostics and all that fun stuff

    With @Girds parting out you may want to confirm of he's still interested, but I highly doubt it

    And he is still on that list twice as #8 and #12
