VRP Headers

First off I would like to thank Vadim and the guys at VRP for the awesome headers and great customer service. I had the headers installed last Thursday and WOW!!! I have not been able to get the smile off face. Since installing the headers I have felt the difference in the addition of power. Definitely a great buy. I also got the 55k airboxes from VRP a while back. I think the combination of the two have definitely added to the WOW factor!! I got the headers on sale for $1499. If you're looking to get some pretty good gains, these headers are definitely worth the money.

how much louder did your car get? Can I also ask how much was the airbox - can you post pics? Wondering what they look like.

I really didn't notice the car get louder with the new headers. I think I paid $599 for the airbox, again worth every penny. Do a search for 55k airbox, they are made by VRP. You can also e-mail Vadim. I will PM you his e-mail address.

Here is the thread for the airboxes.
