Sancho: You probably could install them if you have some automotive experience, I've heard of some people installing shorty headers in their driveway in 1-2hrs.
yo steely....have you had your car on a dyno yet?

No, I'll probably get it dyno'd after I get an x-charger. I might dyno it before then, but defnitly not before the winter.

steel, what kind of sound difference did you notice with the JBA's and H Pipe. Im getting the same setup as you except instead of using the mufflers you have I'm using my SLP Loudmouths.

My duals, shorty headers, and h-pipe are about 5X's as loud as my single hi-flow jba was, about 4X's as deep, and gave me a nice increase in hp while low end torque moved up a couple hundread rpm's I'm pretty sure. Your set-up will be pretty good, but it will be very loud. Mine's loud and whenever I have the windows down and am cruising at around 45-50mph, I have trouble hearing my passengers in the car. Nice and Deep though. The headers made the sound difference and pitch note a lot deeper I'm pretty dure with a little help from the h-pipe. Good Luck!

yo steely, did you get the h-pipe setup at the saem time you got ur headers?. i got the h-pipe with jba evols myself and although the sound is aggressive, its not deafening. actually more of a smooth roar. do the headers alone make that much difference in sound?

Yes, got theheaders at the same time as the h-pipe. Yeah, I think the headers made the sounddeeper anda lotlouder. They're worth the $350 in my opinion if you love listening to the sound of your exhaust and standing out in traffic.
