Has anyone tried out this system or do you know anything about it?
Seems quite expensive. However, I am wondering if this design help with the heat transfer issue?

Holy Cow that is expensive. I paid about that much after labor to have stock cats replaced due to their transmission mount placement. . . Wasn't happy.

Wow. I've been looking at my options as far as replacement or relocation of the cats for the possibility of failing due to going DP but damn...supersprint is awesome but for 5,000...that's a big price to pay.

At that price does it include labor to install and a Nuru massage?

I like the idea but that price?? That's insane. Also it looks like they moved the O2 sensor bung further down stream. For about a quarter of the price JHM might be a better option?

Has anyone had these on there DP car for more than a season? Loe and I had these and they both failed. I had a sh*t show getting replacements for their o2 locations issue. I never fully recovered from that experience. The price is speaking for the JHM ones. We could buy (3) extras for backup vs the superSprint ones. But I have that old saying “you get what you pay for” playing in the back of my head. But I agree SuperSprint is asking for your newborn with this system. Good thing I just had twin boys. I can spare one.
