Getting a BIG box from Summit (At some point)

[FUBAR]

Hey guys,
At some point, hopefully before summer gets here *I think* I will be ordering this lot from Summit, as you can see it'll be a BIG box because the headers include a Y-pipe.  The shipping is nearly $200 and then the usual taxes on top  :rolleyes:



The timing of this is dependent on Santander's share price, so won't be happening right away, but if anyone wants to get anything Big from Summit and is interested in sharing a box to hopefully reduce the shipping cost a bit let me know.
(I haven't checked the UK suppliers yet but they're normally pricey)

Hmm, I'll bare that in mind . . . . :chiny:

Takes a bit longer, but saves a lot on shipping costs.

I am still waiting to purchase the AutoMeter gauges for my bus so I would but....

So I am currently on a self-imposed spending freeze, which is making work on the bus even slower than it was before. I am only fitting parts that I already have 'in stock' or other tasks that just require time rather than new parts.

:busker:

Maybe I can if things pick-up...  :work:

I've found when ordering things from Summit that come in large boxes, adding items for mates really don't save much, if anything. Seeing as a lot of the cost is actually the tax, the saving from being in the same box is minimal. Also gets hella confusing working out the split cost on it. 

That said, I'm in the states this week, could pick up the header bolts and the fender cover if you want?

Na, if you could get the lot in a suitcase then I'd take you up on it  :up:

The temptation to pickup an entire rotating assembly is strong, but again, don't think I'll have room in my case :(

Ok, forgive me for what is a probably a really noob-ish question as I should know better.

The hole near the flange... ( :rofls: :rayof: :rofls: ) couldn't resist that one... where the left header meets the y-pipe in the picture below is for the O2 sensor right? and there's only 1 isn't there?  Was thinking may as well add a new sensor to the list.

[Andy]

In a stock system there is only one, interestingly though, it's nothing like that close to the actual headers. I would almost say that is too close to the exhaust ports. They recommend that is placed about a foot or so after the collector flange.

Might be work seeing where your O2 sensor is, and if the wiring can reach that far.

Now you mention it I know its not on the y-pipe as the IROC already has a Stainless Y on it and I'm 99% certain I didn't have to remove/replace the sensor when I removed the old stock pipe, so it must be that far up from stock.  :chiny: I should just go & look really shouldn't I.

Just for testing I added a second header / Y set to the cart & the shipping nearly doubled ($340) so it seems your right. :rolleyes:
