I want to know what difference the headers make alone. I would really like to get those for mine.

ok, just got the car back home and all i can say is DAMN!!! at cold start, it is one of the meanest sounding cars i have ever heard. once the engine warms up, it turns to a really deep growl (but still mean sounding). didnt feel a whole lot faster at first, but when i opened it up on the highway, it hit 100 a hell of a lot faster than it ever has before. that has to all be coming from the headers b/c the exhaust, according to everybody, dyno'd at 0HP and all i did was replace the factory h-pipe with JBA's off-road h-pipe and eliminated the catalytic converters, which from what i hear, are already as least restrictive as aftermarket "high-flow" cats...

dont know if the whole system was worth the 1700 i paid with installation but it damn sure sounds good. taking it to the dyno tomorrow to get the car tuned. i'll post results ASAP
