quick shorty header question help!!
ok so i just pulled off the right side exhaust manifold to tap out a bolt i broke putting on my x pipes. well it was a serious pain in the a$$ to get this thing off, and the question i have looming over my head now is this... should i throw on some shorties while im there! how much more work do i have to do if any to put them on im not sure of the clearance issue if there is any.... do i have to drop any front end parts or lift the motor anything special? thanks for the help!

RE: quick shorty header question help!!
If you have your engine raised or lowered some, you could slide in some shorties if you want. I dont know what your mods are, butI warn you to make sure you have a CAI, TB, and plenum before installing the headers. I installed some shortieson my brothers car a few weeks ago, and the low-end power of the car went away. It was very slow up until 50 mph or so when it finally made normal power.We added a TB and plenum and that seemed tofix it.You WILL NOT feel any difference really though with the shorties. Only get them for the sound, not if you expect performance. Personally, I recommend waiting until you can do long tubes, as they will provide more HP and TQ.
