Default no supercharger, now what

was going to do the D1 kit, but probly since i'm going to buy a motorcycle i've got to abandon the SC idea. would like to do a full exhaust. question is this, what's a good pair of headers that i can put on that won't scrape if i lower the car?

pacesetter,edelbrock,kooks and qtp are the best designed headers.
not sure if theyll scrape. with a lowered car though.
you should be able to do a search on each one and find an answer real quick.
I'm personally going with coated pacesetters with TSP ORY and TSP rumbler exhaust.
and an electric cutout.

Thumbs up

Dynatech long tube headers. Easy installation, great fit, superior quality, and stainless steel.

I have said this many times about my car. After the install, I picked up 3/4 in ground clearance. I scraped the factory Y pipe many times. I have yet to scrape the one that came with the Pacesetters. I am lowered with a Prokit. Good Luck and hope this helps

Get the polished stainless Hookers for $8xx

Great ground clearance. They don't have a catted y-pipe though, only an off-road y.

No issues with my Hooker long tube headers. Had them for about a year and a half on a lowered car.
