Headers installed
 

I got headers installed this last week. They have cats (random tech) and AIR tubes. I drove up to Marc Haibecks to have them done. I also had C-beam plates installed, and got the car dyno tuned. Marc also noticed the shift boot wasn't installed properly, so he fixed that and a loose drivers side exterior mirror. As part of the tune, he re-enabled the shift light and raised the redline to 7,300 rpm.

The car woke up noticeably! It also sounds awesome. There is more burble to the exhaust. There is of course also more noise and resonance. I'll have to see if I get used to it or not. Marc mentioned it seemed to have less resonance than the B&B with headers, and a little more than the '93+ pipes with Flowmaster 40-series delta flows.

Anyway, on to the meat of the upgrade:

That is really great to hear about your car......mine is going to Haibeck's on Saturday for header w/o cats also. Hope to pick up a couple of HP's doing so. I have the Power Effect Exhaust system so I really don't know what to expect for noise. Hope it picks up a couple of decibles:mrgreen: ....

Very nice :thumbsup:

I think you will adjust to the resonance by either getting use to it or adjusting your driving to avoid it.

It has headers, exhaust, and a ported top end. The exhaust was featured in the previous HotB. It's the stock pipes with an LT4 resonator and Dynomax Ultraflow mufflers. From the back it looks stock with the square tips and black cans.

Keith, I saw your car there. It's *** was way up in the air. I could tell you drove it a few miles to get there, as it was almost as dirty as mine.
