Does a bear **** in the woods?
Sorry for the language but it will most definately make a difference. Takes away from the high pitch raspy sound for a more deep sound. Dont expect V8 deep but headers are well worth it especially JBA.

maybe you wouldnt feel it... idk. i felt a difference after my duals that were supposed to add that much. i know when you combine mods they dont add together for a total... i guess i was just hoping it was more noticeable...

Remember that HP is a theoretical measure of work done over a period of time, so it isn't something you feel so much as it is something you experience. Quoting HP gains make for an easy marketing headline that is virtually meaningless. Torque is applied force and that is what you can feel and is way more important than horsepower. The easiels example of what torque is all about is installing lower rear end gears. They don't add any engine power, don't ever claim to, yet they are the single eaiest way to totaly transform the acceleration charecteristics of your car. They do that by multiplying the existing engine torque you have to better move or accelerate your vehicle mass. That's what known as seat of the pants feel, and you get it from torque not HP.

my acceleration is pretty darn quick now. and i only installed 3.73's. now i'm craving an alum. driveshaft. i understand how some like to get their car up to high speeds but i get my thrills out of acceleration. my upgraded 0-60 experience made me discover a new love for my car. [8D]

I have to disagree IMHO, my neighbor had got the JBA headers over a month ago and to be quite honest once I was done with the installation I was actually quite dissapointed with the time I spent, and he was dissapointed with all the money he spent. (I am apparently the "oh **** I dont know how to install this who should I talk to person" so I ended up doing the job) Although there is "some difference" it's barely noticeable, it was a little deeper at idle that was about it, so for $300+ considering whatever version you get, the little performance boost if your N/A, and all the cursing you will be doing, doesn't seem worth it to me, at least thats what my logics tell me. I surely wont be doing this for a while, it will have to be the last thing on my long list of mods and I would have to really want to burn some money. On a side note, it was top notch quality and if you like shiny things under your hood it sure does look more attractive then then the rusty stock ones.
*I just realized this was a bumped old post, but I guess I might as well leave my opinion up for anyone interested....*
