Default headers

To all those who have a supercharger/turbo I was wanting to know if you have headers can they still be used on the car and if a aftermarket intake woulf have to be removed if you have a supercharger/turbo.

Actually the answer is "depends"... You can't use LT headers with the PH Turbo.. not sure about shorties... so shortyheaders are a maybe on the Turbo... You can use either type of header with a S/C.. You really won't be able to use your CAI with either a S/C or Turbo.. Not only won't they fit, the MAF housing is really to small.. you'll end up pegging your MAS and running lean!
