That motor is shot... Just an extra the shop has lying around - figured why not mock em up for a picture like that. The SS LT Headers i picked up "used" for 2grand... they didn't look too used though plus they got media blasted/cleaned before ceramic coating - so it was a no brainer. The exhaust does sound incredible and the work is top-notch. All T304 Stainless Steel. Thanks again! I'll be posting more pictures once i hook up open tune and the two widebands, the diff, and a bunch of other goodies. Going on the dyno tomorrow to see what we got from this little project!

This shop is located in Washington NJ. Just Search Redline Speed Worx on google. They do excellent excellent work. Easy to work with, and very competent. JR was the Master Tech at a MB Dealer in NJ for a many a years.

Tell em Skittles sent you - that will give em' a good laugh.
Well they get work done without stories. They can do anything from service to fabrication. Very friendly and they love chattin' with the customers, it's a very good experience - you don't have to just drop your car off and be gone you can hang out with the boys!

That sounds like a great deal and pick-up. I am between getting long-tubes or poss med/short tube headers from kleeman. I am just affraid of the long tubes being to loud. How does your new set up sound ? does it have any drone, "muscle car sound" i like a nice exhaust note but am affraid of it being to loud what do you think?

Do it, they really wake the beast up. You won't regret getting rid of that fire in your pocket that's burning to be spent on headers!
