3.0 Stainless Headers
 
2 Attachment(s)
Well Guys,

I final finished a mod that I have been wanting to do for awhile. I bought these headers back in February, and today I got around to putting them on today. It was a little bit of work...about 5 hours. I still need to take it to an exhaust shop to extend the flanges that bolt to the headers from the exhaust. The new headers were about an 1" short of the old ones. I will try to post an audio clip on Monday once I am done.

Here is the video:

So what are you going to do about cats since the OE ones are built into the manifold??

I have the option of mounting some universal high flow cats further down where the resonator used to be, and buying some O2 sensor extenders. But for now I am going to drive without them. We don't have to have our cars tested for emission here.:D The cats are just HP robbers.

That looks awesome! Will flow much better than those stock manifolds for sure. Can't wait to hear the exhaust.
