my car went in for surgery last night

Having my buddy at cbtuning install the much needed wavetrac and my mbh headers arrived yesturday. I would of had the headers sooner but my address was not on the pay pal. these headers are super nice the quality on them is unreal, since i seen two other brands come through my buddies shop. If all goes well Tony at Bip and myself will be at it with my retune.

Nice choice on the headers. They really are works of art. Can't wait to see how much different you think she feels after the install.

MBH headers are worth it for the sound alone. The added power is just a bonus.

Awesome! I like your mods and how you're going about it. You seem to know about drag racing by the looks of it. I still can't seem to understand why people try and throw a big pulley and tune on their cars with just a heat exchanger and skip the headers. Then complain about skyrocketing IAT's and power loss.

Headers should be your first major mod, they will substantially lower your IAT's and give anywhere from 20-25whp from primary cat delete with 3" flange as I learned from Shardul, all the way up to 40-50whp for long tubes which has been proven.

LSD is a huge plus too… Im thinking 11.1 - 10s with good DA and some VHT, Whatever it takes LoL

Yea when seeing how restrictive the manifolds were from pics and after hearing first hand how docile a car with headers sounds when my buddy put arh headers on a car i knew i wanted a pair. Iam keeping the rear cats on for now even though nows the time to get rid of them or put high flows on but its still extra cost i do not feel like spending now.

Can't believe the garbage design of the stock headers. Nice upgrages!
