Speaking of MAC P/C. Who has those in stock? I just had to cancel my order with CJPP because the mid pipe was on back order. Not just a couple days, they were saying like a month backlog.

luke13 it doesnt seem to be a terrible install for the mac lt. i was going to be doing some suspension work in the front control arm bushings, bilstien struts, steeda bumpsteer and x2 ball joints and its only a few more bolts from having all those out so going to install all at once! Going to be a long weekend! Im tired enough after undercoating most of the car yesterday and then rear bilstein shocks and j&m lower control arms. Then hopefully it will ride good and sound good!

i dont expect a big gain in hp either just want the amazing sound of headers!

this is what im going for

Just get a set of stage 8 locking header bolts, and percey seal 4 good gaskets and you won't have to do it twice.
