Headers Hey everyone, i really dont know much about anything <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> , but i have the SLP dual dual exhaust set-up and i was thinking about hooking up some headers, i was wondering if anyone could give me some insight to what headers would fit, what all i would need, and possibly which would give me the best sound and performance with my exhaust i have now. Thanx! <img border="0" alt="[Firebird]" title="" src="graemlins/formula.gif" />

Re: Headers since you have the dual/dual that means its very close to stock sounding so you would be safe running an offroad set of headers and not worry about driving yourself insane on the highway. From what people say FLP are some of the best but they carry a HEFTY pricetag at around $1200-1300 a set. They come with removable pipe segments to allow easy removal of the cats though. I am running MAC headers on my car (2002 z28) with a catalytic y pipe. I haven't gotten it dyno'd but I definately felt a good seat of the pants difference when flooring it. A lot of people say if you arent going to go with a cam or heads/cam, the difference in power between midlength headers (MAC) and Longtubes (FLP, SLP) isn't going to be very significant at all. Now if you plan on going with aftermarket internals the extra cost of longtubes might be a good idea. Hookers are supposedly good too but I don't know much. I am by no means an expert on this but what I mentioned seems to be the general consensus from most of the board members.
