    They may want to think about some ceramic coating on those headers :P

    They're made of inconel. Since theres no turbine to spin and they have the most overdesigned collectors in the world I don't think they're too worried about loosing a little heat before the outlet. I have heard that there is a distinct reason why the exhaust points the way it does. It actually makes the rear wing work better and makes a measureable amount of thrust to help propel the car.

    Yes! Retard the timing a bunch, rev, and wait. You might even get to see the exhaust valves fly out the tailpipe!!!

    PS: Haha, owned by the filter!!!!

    PPS: Or did you mean the sound? Get a tape recorder.....
