Default Headers

I am looking into headers and a catted x-pipe as my next big upgrade and I don't know if I should wait. BBK has the set available which is very tempting. I was waiting for Borla but it seems like their systems are going to be for off road use only. I noticed that Kooks has headers out for the 5.0 so Im guessing that they are working on some for the v6? Basically what I'm asking is it wise to wait or is BBK a reliable and good choice to go with. I can't imagine as far as performance goes that another company will have a significant difference.

All long tube headers for the 3.7 will be off road, if you move the cats there not CARB legal. Borla did a post on this as to why his are off road. BBK is not CARB legal.

Im really starting to question your knowledge on cars. BBK has a catted x pipe if you wanted to go longtubes just for your information sorry that you got misled.

If you don't use the stock cat's and also not move them there not CARB legal. Ask whom ever you brought them from if there CARB legal. Now does that catted x-pipe come certified by the Gov't? I'm not trying to misled you, I'll not post to your thread again. Good luck
