    Default OK...

    so now you will be able to make the header piece for people who feel the need to have a PC on their 998?!
    Thinking required bung holes, and not having to have the Spyder down to add the bung to existing.

    Just wondering,

    Bill

    If a person would want to add a Power Commander Controller to their Spyder-

    This requires adding the proper size threaded bung hole for the 02 sensor.
    I was just thinking, fabricating a new header piece might speed the process up.
    This would not require pulling the original header prior to doing an install of the PC.
    Just free thinking a little today,

    but than again, maybe this is a lame idea.....

    Looks like an opportunity to make more goodies!

    Question about your fenders. Are you rolling your own material? I like yours but would like it about 3" longer and without the pieces to attach it to the hitch mount installed. I have an aftermarket hitch and would like to be able to play with the installation location.

    It's a tubing bender, but I'm not sure what the part in front with the blade does

    It's a hydraulic powered bender, former, expander. It can bend round and square tubing and flat stock. It can form euro joints, header flanges, bell ends etc on exhaust pipe as well as expand and contract exhaust pipe.

    I have them rolled for me and I attach the mounts, so I could sell you a blank fender if you like.
    I put holes in the bottom of the fender to attach an additional mud flap if you want the fender to go all the way down to the ground.
