Default Shorties installed

Just got done installing my JBA shorties on my 00 T/A and it seeemed to help out alot. More so in the higher RPMs. Got them used from a friend so didnt pay a whole lot for them so it was worth it IMO. Took about a total of 7 hours to put it by myself so they werent too bad.

i had a pair of hooker coated headers. i did feel a noticable gain just from a 1/2 throttle take off. but, 2-3 years later i couldn't resist the temptation of LT's, so i switched to kooks.

yeah it seemed like it pulled harder as you got into the higher RPM's. I wouldnt go out and spend 5-6 hundred dollars unless I had to for emmissions but for what I got them for I felt it was worth it. Does sound ALOT better now has ALOT better tone to it.

And their easy to install, took me 8 hours b/c I didnt do it straight through and triple checked everything just to make sure everything was tight. But I slide both of them in within a matter of minutes just a pain gettin the old ones off
