flowtech headers?
flowtech headers?
hey guys, its about time for me to change out my y-pipe due to rust...but i want to put headers on and i'm looking at a set of flowtech headers http://www.carpartswholesale.com/cpw...y=1&make_code=
and its 315 for ceramic coated headers...they dont have a y-pipe but it cant be that much....what do you guys think? ive never quite heard of flowtech, but it sure beats 528 for edlebrock

flowtech headers are better than stock, but if you plan on doing future mods (heads, cam or anything big like that), go with 1 5/8 headers..

Re: flowtech headers?
i have the other set, not the 1116's
If i could go back i would get the 116's because the have a matching y-pipe. But other wise they are ok for the money. I'm content with them.

Re: flowtech headers?
Flowtechs are one step above stock manifolds, and Edelbrocks are one step above those. A set of good coated headers (SLP, Hooker, Hedman), y-pipe, and install will set you back about $800. Change your catalytic converter, i-pipe and muffler first if you havent yet. Then do the headers. Everything at once should be $1100.
Re: flowtech headers?
my muffler is new (flowmaster 80 series), my i pipe is new, and i usually dont run a cat cuz i got an electronic cut out, but i have inspection in a month so i was thinking i'd get the headers and the y-pipe (cuz mines rotted) and i thought it would be dumb to get a stock y-pipe and then just change it out in a month or so...
