Default Header Opinion

Well im finally going to start modding my 00 WS6 and I think I am going to start with some headers. I am going with Kooks and their catted y-pipe. I want everyones opinions and suggestions. I plan on doing a cam and some intake work later in the future also. I already have suspension stuff done but just starting to mod engine. Comments? I already have a Borla cat-back on the car also. Think it will sound ok with that headers/exhaust combo? I really do not like having no cats though.

I just put on Kooks with the Catted y pipe, My exhaust is the SLP Dual/Dual, It sounds much bettrer, I think with the Borla it will be better yet. Good choice of header.

good set up.. thats what my set up was, now its x-pipe dumped..... but i would do motor mounts since headers will be out of the way and you will be lifting the motor to slide the headers in.....
