I noticed that when i installed mine that it got rid of a lot of the "popping" or gargles on a decell that mine had with the stock manifolds. Im running bbk's, stock cats and boomtubes and love the way it sounds. Great vids! For 300$, and a 4 hour home install, i deffinatly reccomend them! Just make sure you have some stubby ratchet wrenches and long extensions w/ swivels for your ratchets. That is what makes the install go a lot faster.-Jon
The headers really space out the pulses evenly so having any burble is unlikely. There may be a little, but I can't really hear any.

i did a little driving today and didn't notice the drone i used to hear, and they are definitely throatier when you get on it (i have hi-flow cats, x pipe, and flowmasters, along with the ebay cheapy headers)
i'd recommend getting the cheap ones if you can get a local place to ceramic coat them for cheap enough.

Well, the BBK's were only $268 with free shipping from Brenspeed, and that's a really good price to me...especially compared to a lot of other big brands like FRPP, JBA,... .
The BBK design is the only one I've heard clips of that produces the noticeable glub-glub-glub exhaust sound.
However, the ones you got off Ebay seem to be good too for a really nice price.
