Best depends on how much money you want to spend

if you ever want to go heads/cam, FI, or just want affordable stainless steel headers. you may want to consider getting Texas speeds 1 7/8 stainless steel headers.

the bbk's are 369 at summit and come with the y pipe the pacesetters are 292 and the y pipe is another 150 so i was looking at 400 to 500$ and i talked to the guy who tuned my car and he said the rear o2 sensers are shut off. is it just that simple that i can bolt the headers and y pipe in and im done?

You can get them for $355 free shipping at www.ws6store.com
Or you could get summit to price match them if you have to order from summitracing. real easy just call them and they will do it on the phone.

Yes its simple just bolt them in. Drivers side from the top. Passenger from the bottom. Re-use MLS gaskets. Do poly MM's while your in there. Depending on what type of exhaust you have (I-pipe) you may have to get it welded up. I did, but it was only like $20.

You will know you made the right choice when you start it up and drive.

Order them from WS6store since they are cheaper and you don't have to pay taxes on them
