Smile Motordyne Long Tube headers

I was interested in headers for my 2008 coupe and I found the motordyne long tube headers appealing. I tried searching through the forums to find a write up on them and was unsuccessful, Does anyone have any experience with these headers?

It's a relatively new part which was still under testing last I talked to Motordyne a couple weeks ago.

Here is a review on the 370z website which details the product. Not sure if they are AWD compatible yet.

If I were going to do long tube headers, Motordyne makes the most sense with their modular design post-header. You'll be able to run a cat and switch it out, easily, if/when you go to the track. You'll need a tune for both modules but it's doable.

Definitely not the least expensive option when you add it all up however.

Longtubes> Shorty header + test pipes because exhaust turbulence.

Right, but judging by the pics on their website, there are clamps towards the middle of the LT that connect to what looks like motordynes test pipes.
