If your going to the trouble of putting headers on get long tubes, you will need new exaust to fit the heasers.

this question should be in "pipes, boost, and juice". but anyways, yah you can bolt up shorty headers to your stock stuff. But like mach 1 said, it would be better to save up all your money and do long tubes and do everything at once.

you just have to know the right people

anyway... like everyone else said, when you get the longtubes(i say this because shorty's are a waste of money) you will have to get a different mid-pipe...

before you do that, look into smog laws where you live. here in california long tubes are illegal. you might not care, but it would really suck to have to take them off and put on the stock units to pass a smog test, then put them back on afterwards if you can't live without them.

Man are you sure about this? It's a new one on me but then again I ain't no expert on illegal parts laws either.
