People run BBK L/T's which cost about the same. No complaints that I have heard of.

People also run OBX which are practically free and say there are no problems as well.

You also need the mid-pipe that goes with those LT's. If your looking for something cheap, OBX Long tube headers on ebay. Under $500 shipped with 2 mid pipes. Also BBK has some decent pricing. Unless you can install it yourself, its going to cost around $4-600 for install from a shop.

lmperformance.com to check out the BBK ones and/or other ones.

The Macs are a good deal; they are actually a mid-length & not full-length. But the gains between those & full length L/T's will be minor. The only thing to consider is the primary diameter. 1 5/8" is generally preferred for N/A, where the 1 3/4 is preferred for boosted engines. Also, even though they're not American-made, check out the OBX brand. I installed a set in Dec. & the quality is actually very good. They are 450-500 & include matching O/R H-pipes.

Yeah I really want to buy a set of the OBX headers, but I need cats for inspections. I'm suprised more people havent purchased them with how cheap they are.
