Default My new Headers/exhaust....Kooks stepped headers :)

just picked up a new header/exhaust setup

previous was Jet Hot LTs and TSP TDs w/ sweet thunders

new is Kooks 1 7/8 stepped to 2" w/ custom TDs 3.5" tubing to 44 series flowmasters and dumps

the old setup was on my cam only setup and the new setup will be on my new H/C/I setup

side note...dont care about under the curve or stuff of that sort, thats what a 6spd is for

what do you think? (this will be good)

I think you have a great looking bird man, never really seen anyone have them without the rear wing... actually looks pretty nice, you have any video(s) of it running with the new setup? I'm sure it sounds badass.

Pics or it didn't happen..

Kooks is top notch.. And Flow 44's dumped shouldn't be an issue. A little bit of "back-pressure" never hurts. Those are decent mufflers. Wouldn't be concerned about the flow qualities much.
