Thanks but I think I'll go with the 1 3/4 Hooker Super Comp Long tubes. We don’t have emission lows in Bahrain.

Yep, it's an option. Not very popular, but they have to have it to be street legal in some places. I have a pair of them (w/o AIR) ready to be put on my car, so I would suggest the hooker. You probably want to get them coated though, otherwise the paint burns off and they start to rust.

I got the shortys. The long tubes were just too much for me ($680?) so I got the supercomp shortys ceramic coated. I'm going to do true duals so I'll let you guys know how it goes.

i think all headers are really the same. headers are headers, it jsut a preferance to the names and prices. I got hedman shorties and y-pipe for 200$ then had a shop weld on the o2 sensor.

The hooker with the AIR tubes, if using them here is a little trick. For the pass side try bending the AIR tubes in towards the motor some. It make sinstalling them better. And listen to the car with the open Y pipe and no cat. It sounds great and the pick up is un real. And besides 1 3/4 prim are too much for what most people have for a motor. But to each there own.
