If you must change headers....

I went with QTP headers and their Y-pipe. they ROCK!!!
They are well built, good fit, they do not hang low like SLP headers, they are tucked up there nice and neat. the y-pipe is freaking huge (no back pressure there). the y-pipe will also accept a 4" cat back system, meaning there is no "bottle-neck", just 4" diameter straight thru. and if you do have a 3.5" or 3" catback system, it comes with an adapter/reducer.

If you must change headers, look into these. there is a huge demand for them you may have to wait a couple of weeks.

hope that helps

QTP headers are great headers, but I honestly dont think its worth it to change. save your money and buy yourself some heads.

just my two cents worth

you saw my other post.
I sold my MACs for what it cost to buy my Jet Hots. Then I paid out of pocket for a y-pipe. IT WAS WORTH THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY. And I could not get a set of heads for $125.
