power and sound

Now price is not a big deal for me...I want to get a good set of headers that will give me the best power for the car and will sound good when it is running. what would you suggest?

I would say the hooker 2055 supercomp headers, but if I had to choose another header it would be the SLP's. Anything else is just sub par. I would also suggest getting them jet hot coated.

I love my set up. You get the power you need and the loud hardley sound. I dont recommend the headers I go though. I have edelbrock, I suggest go with hooker's or slp's. Then I have dual cut-outs before the hi-flo cats, and I have the hooker aero chamber muffler. When it goes threw the muffler its quiet at idle and a nice grunt when at wot. Then when the cut-outs are open, damn makes the flowmaster sound weak.
Peace Out,

What RSS and GTA said. Not much else to say here, either of those brands and that's it.
