what did you pay for them?I like DC, they make great headers!It looks like the previous owner had heat wrap around them. Are you considering the same thing? Being ceramic coated they run cooler and quieter than a stainless header, so i wouldnt think you would need to do that. jusy my .02

[4drmadness]

yes sir, the previous owner did heat wrap them. he had a bunch a stuff on his car, like a turbonetics turbo. im not gona heat wrap it cause the ceramic shud do the work for me. i paid a whopping 100, got a great deal, so just jumped on them. now time to find someone to install these for me

[4drmadness]

u know anyone who could do this for super cheap in the area?

im not sure how you run a turbo with headers??you run turbo exhaust manifolds.superchargers and blowers use headers though..

I do not know anyone to do your installation...i do all things myself, but have been known to break things in the process.

Exactly...

If you run a turbo further back in the exhaust, you run headers and no turbo manifolds. Looked at that setup once.

talk about boost lag...ive seen those setups as well...for american trucks.

btw i just noticed that one of the 02 sensors has a bolt on it and one doesnt. i have no clue....why one has a bolt and the other one has nothing

[cheapazz]

I've seen that setup on a few different vehicles, I just don't like the thought of having the filter either under my car or having 1/2 a mile of intake piping. Not enuff room under our cars I would think.

[johnnyd6mt]

nice. i would get headers buy i wanna go FI

[cheapazz]

VIVEK.....are you refering to the bung hole plug in yer headers and not the actual O2 sensor? The plug is so the O2 threads don't get all *&^%$'d up in transit.

[4drmadness]

yea i was reffering to the bung hole. i just installed the headers yesterday. loving the gains man, after 3k rpm the car gets super lively and you get that push in the back of your seat feeling. MY EXHAUST IS DONE!!!!!

[tollboothwilley]

noticeable gains huh?

how did it change the exhaust note? sound louder? or about the same?

[4drmadness]

by far the best gains, much more than the cats. after 3k, car pushes super hard. its insane. sound did get louder, but exhaust note didnot change too much. after a couple days of driving, it has gotten quieter. crank pulley and then a tunee

[tollboothwilley]

A tune is gonna be expensive. 03-04 need a wideband/rpm logger in order to tune, like with Osiris. 05+ have the wideband stock.

I think you have a plug in your headers though, so that you can install a wideband
