My .02, buy a good meth kit as well, I have convinced alot of guys here locally switch to boost over spray and they have not looked back
good luck you will be happy once all the bugs are worked out

Loose the headers and go back to stock manifolds with the STS kit. You will end up doing it eventually when it takes forever to spool that thing with headers anyway. Exhaust wrap everything also so you can keep heat in.

You will have to remove them to wrap them properly. Then you will eventually end up switching them for manifolds. It will help the spool time and power output. I have seen three friends say the same thing and then watched them remove the headers and reinstall the manifolds.
