Team: I would like to update all of you on the Hotshot Header install that I recently posted about.
After all the hassles that I had with the header, I decided to call the manufacturer today to let them know of my dissatisfaction with their product. I spoke with Angie at Hotshot and explained all of the problems that I had with the fitment and design of the header for the SOHC Saturn. She explained that they were aware of these problems and that the SOHC header was to have been out of production and pulled from shelves so that no more were sold. (explains my 3 month wait for mine). Hotshot is currently having a new design Tri-Y header manufactured for the SOHC cars. This new header will be available sometime in the next few months. Because of the known issues with the current design, I am to submit a warranty claim to them for the defective unit and they will replace it with the new style when it comes available. In the meantime, I was authorized to have the downpipe welded to the header outlet to prevent the system from leaking and possibly coming apart. After having the components welded this evening and installing it back on the car, I will say that the unit looks very nice and seems to have increased throttle response and power. For those of you that are considering getting a header for your SOHC, I would suggest you wait it out for the new design. For those of you that already have one of these units, it might not hurt to contact Hotshot and explain your situation. They may be able to help you out with a replacement. Cheers! Scott W.
