Though I did get the truck to pass with a cracked header which I thought was funny. Depends on the day I suppose though I've heard about them harrassing stock drivers because its supposedly a 'race' car

I am sure there are some other headers out there that can be had more cheaply.......and I am sure they are good, but QTP & Kooks.......I just cannot fathom any company selling them new that low.
And yeah, 8 days in the Bahamas.

Well I got the guy to send me a few pictures of the headers again and a picture of the x-pipe that I'm picking up with it:
Will I be able to reuse my stock gaskets and header bolts or should I be safe and pick up new ones?

When I went through I still had my flowmaster cat back on so it was still tolerable on a noise level. I think if I would have gone through with the boom tube they might have laughed me out of the place.

Well I definitely want LOUD, but no so loud that I'm going to get kicked out of my townhouse because of complaints haha. What are my options for the "quietest" mufflers. I was looking at Flowmaster 1 chambers, but I'm opened to suggestions. And by the looks of the headers, do they look like the racestyle headers w/ no air or egr?
