Hi guys, i'm up for a set of extractors shortly and I came across this pic a little while ago of an AU saloon car engine bay with a set of extractors I haven't seen before on a 4.0 I6. Just wondering if anyone knows what brand they are, and if there are any difficulties with clearance when fitting them. They look fantastic, and i'm keen to give something different a go.

I have sent CES an email asking prices, will let you guys know, they look like they might be a good alternative to the usual Pacemakers pending price and fitment. Steve.

I received a response from CES this morning regarding the extractors, they're $2,600! I guess i'll be going with Pacemaker 4480's at that price. It must be getting really pricey builing a competitive Saloon car these days with part prices like that.

Wow!
An extra $2K or so for an extra 5kW? It seems that parts for anything that is a luxury item eg: race car, boat,jet ski,plane is quite expensive.

LOL that price is outrageous. Sure they might need to recover some R&D but really?

They look fantastic, but I was not expecting that price, Pacemakers will do the job for me for club level motorsport. I know the Saloon Car guys will spend up to snare every HP they can to gain an advantage on competitors and i'm sure those headers work, but they're probably overkill for a road car.
