Default Headers

i just ordered a set of shorty headers for my '95 GT 5SPD and i was wondering if i will notice a difference in power at all? I already hav a bassani x pipe and flowmaster mufflers on it, with a few other minor bolt ons. Will these make the car louder?

Gains will be limited, maybe 5-10hp, the sound will definitely improve.

It will get deeper.

You'll notice a little bit of power increase over what you already have, but as a full exhaust system, it's probably worth 20-25 HP or so at the crank.
