As promised, my ebay header installation experience...
It kool you got some headers but, I bet it sounds like *** with just headers 
You do no you are losing hp and trq with not having any back pressure right? A stock car with open headers eeek You had to install some install some temp turndowns? WTF did you weld it and not just throw some band clamps??

Did you measure the pipe sizes to see if they are 1 3/4" and 3"? I am looking at some of those ones on E-Bay and they are doing it with a tape which appears they aren't doing it right. I would rather see an inside digital caliper so I sent them all a question.
dude read much?
he said they are temp
he only welded a few spots 
I guess that fixes my problem 
Yes, the turndowns were welded on... a few spots here and there so they don't fall off... 
I have the same headers and they are 1.75 and 3"
Do you have the link or seller? I sent a message to three all about the same price but no response yet. I see one sells one that looks highly polished. I assume they didn't come with extensions? Wouldn't I need those for an 02 and where do you buy them?
they only come with gaskets but I didnt use them they were like neoprene or somthing i used gm gaskets.....these headers are really nice i have pics im gonna upload tommorrow comparing them to a so called"name brand"header....they make them look like junk......looks like one of the sponsors here would buy a bunch of these and start selling them.....
