Re: headers?

hey guys.I have not been on the boards in a while,couple years really.I can see not much has changed.So without sounding like a big ole dyck head i will ask if you read the stickies.most answers are in the stickies.i welcome you to the boards and our third gen world,but,read the stickies up top.
In your car a decent set of off the shelf shorties and y pipe will do all you need.
Upgrade to a 3" I pipe and you should be good for close to 400 hp.way more than your engine,or mine,will do any time soon.

Re: headers?

If your K-member and/or transmission pan don't currently drag or scrape then (depending on which you get) longtubes won't either. Mine come even with my transmission pan.
