Default JBA cat4rward headers?

JBA says they will fit with the rest of your exhaust. Is this a good product to buy?? Anyone with any knowledge would be a great help!

Thanks alot

ZERO gain, they look pretty but thats about it. I ran them for about a year, years ago. Total waste and not cheap.Long tubes are the only way to go.

Totally agree. Shortys and "block huggers" are alot like stock. You will see very minimal gains to say the least. Best to stick to LTs.

ok. Aside from the slp ones, are there any that would fit my stock system? Alot of folks on here dont like the Slp LT headers at all and they say the car drags on steep angles. Are there any good compromises? If so, what kind of power gain am I looking at??

Thanks

SLP long tubes wont fit the stock Y pipe nor will any other long tube header. If you want headers, get long tubes. Shorties are pointless. You'll have to get a new Y pipe with any of em.
