Just my .02.....No matter what part, I've ran across SO many "snobs" about "Higher quality parts"....If it works, it works....But I don't have unlimited budget like some.....Wish I did tho.

I was actually looking at Kooks headers. Maybe have them installed at Tick Performance and tuned next door at PCM Forless. Maybe tow it down there and take a short vacation until they're done lol

Kooks all the way. Although OBX and pacesetters can be had for much cheaper and will do the job just fine, if you have the $$, just get kooks. Fit, finish and overall quality are awesome!

Kooks FTW...they are a better product, and like NeverSatisfied said, if you have the money get Kooks. The product over all is of a far superior quality. Kooks uses better Stainless and the welds look 10x better then the welds I have seen on OBX. And Pacesetter uses mild steel, not stainless, so wrapping or a coating in a must (IMO). But if you want to say on a budget, OBX and Pacesetter are good for want you pay for them.
My Kooks have been on my car for a year now, and I have had Zero issue with them. And I also got them Jet Hot (1700*) coated, and they are still bright silver and look the same as the day I pulled them out of the box.

OK cool. I talked to Tick Performance and PCMForless yesterday. I think I'll plan on dropping the car off there for a few days to get it all done. Aside from headers, it has all the mods I planned on doing to it already. Only want to do "so much" to the daily driver before I compromise comfort and reliability lol

I love the name of that "The Polluter" cam.
You should give away a little dead plushie squirrel with every cam to put on the dashboard.
I like having a V8, especially when driving around next to Prius' in traffic. It'd make me feel even better having a Polluter cam.
Good luck with the V, and also, make sure you read this:

hahaha thanks for the heads up! I had to comment in there.
Yesterday was the first day I really drove the car around. After about an hour I learned to despise cags. I stopped at the post office and my cags bypass arrived from nook and tranny! I installed it in a minute and BAM, I can shift gears again! The rest of the day was FUUUN
