^^^Since this thread was closed due to some of comments posted (I assume), it prompted to think a bit. A quick search on the forum, I couldn't find a thread in line of what I am about to ask, so I am making this thread. Also I felt that I am obligated to make this thread due to some of members' interest on how my header be treated or fixed by Bisimoto.
I would like to, as the title says, know how well is yours working as far as leak issue is concerned. Did it work well right out of the box, leak free? Or, did you have to do something to contain the leak? How did you do it? How is it installed on your car/engine? Please post up actual photos if you have.
Please do not post about power gain or loss. Please do not post what you read about it on other thread or forum. Please do not make those readings as appear to be your own experience. Please do not post what you think about Bisimoto as a company or as a person. Please do not post story about any other product sold by Bisimoto or other company.
Here's mine. I bought this when the last group buy was going on. Pictures were taken soon after it was delivered. Words in the pictures are reflect of my emotions at the time. If you see that as negative to Bisimoto, that may be your own view.
I had it sitting on my rack without contacting Bisimoto because doing so did not produce any positive result on one of members. He said that in his own thread/post other than this one. You can read the same in the following post here.
My header was sent back to Bisimoto for inspection and correction because he(Bisi) was nice enough to offer to pay for shipping charges. You can read this in that closed thread.
As of today, Feb 16, 2013, my header you see above is with Bisimoto waiting for inspection since it was delivered on Jan 22, 2013.

In one of those deleted posts on this thread, there was a comment saying in effect that I should have expected some leak because of Bisi header has slip joints. Below are exhaust pipes removed from an aircraft. These pipes are equipped with slip joints. Since AVgas use lead there will be white deposit if a joint is leaking. As you can see, there's no white deposit around the slip joints indicating no leak. This is what I am accustom with and what I expect from slip joints.

I hope this thread will be a benefit to the current owners as well as future owners of Bisimoto headers and to Bisimoto Engineering.
