Re: which headers?

pacesetter long tubes. $285 at summit racing. There is no reason to go with shorties or mids imo. There just a waist of steel and money imo

Re: which headers?

Do you have to deal with emmissions? How important is plug access?

Re: which headers?

even with emissions the pace setter can be bought with the air provisions and should pass. In sc we have no emission laws so i went with the race ones pace setter offers.

Re: which headers?

Re: which headers?

MAC's or the SLP's, just depends on what you can get a better deal on.

Re: which headers?

SLP's are going to be more expensive.... if you are trying to stick to a budget i'd get some Mac's. The cat is going to be needed if you have to worry about emissions.

Re: which headers?

DO NOT buy pacesetter mids...the headers have to be unbolted to get to your plugs...if thats not an issue then feel free to get them
