Do i want: 1 3/4" or 1 5/8", long or short, chrome or ceramic Headers? Power differences?

Do i want: Cats or Catless X or H pipe?

Will i need a tune after exhaust?

well i'd reccomend 1 5/8" shotr tube ceramic equal length headers from BBk , BBk off road H pipe or catted high flow x if you have emissions, and a tuned catback of your choice, the mid and cat back should be 2 1/2" dia w/ tip size of your choice

will i notice power loss due to reduced backpressure? because on my 2003 when i put the exhaust on i noticed the car felt slower

Longtubes will cost you some backpressure. Shorties will be fine though.

If you basically stock or have a bolt on car I would go with 1 5/8 shorty headers. Ceramic coated would be nice also if you have the extra money. Also, if you have to deal with emmissions than I wouldnt recommend getting an off road mid pipe unless you know someone who can get you a sticker or something. The power difference between an o/r pipe and a catted pipe is minimal.

i dont have to worry about emissions here, so i would get the o/r... but other questions...

Do the headers come with gaskets for the midpipe?

How hard is it to install headers?

What will it cost to get them installed?

It would prob cost a pretty penny to have them installed. I would just do it yourself... they arent that hard.

Wick001

any threads in here on how to install headers?

you can install these yourself get a saturday and a buddy a case of beer and git er dun..... also buy felpro gaskets and locking header bolts... the best $40 you'll spend on your exhaust!
