You didnt lose any low end tq unless something is messed up with your tuning <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> Those grots picked up 20 rwtq on my car at 2000 rpms when I had just a cutout and lid back in the day.

Thunder Racing can get them.

I got mine used. Great headers. Were I to do it again, I'd get them again. My custom Y-pipe needs a little more work, but my new welder will fix that right up. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

They REALLY woke my car up (with the B1). I get terrible wheelhop now. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
