Dynomax ceremic coated headers are hard to beat for the $, about $220. Many forum members have them and most are very happy with them, me being one.

Fevre,
Are you talking about the Cyclone Ceramic Coated Headers that Dynomax has on their web page?

They did not have 'cyclone' on the box but are probably from the same line:

Got mine from Summit but you might find them cheaper elsewhere.

Re: the best headers (scorciae)
Next to no header except a select few shorties will fit the stock exhaust.
Get full length, they're definitely the best way to go. It should cost you no more than $50 to get pipes fitted to the collectors.

Dynomax bought Cyclone. Cyclone Ceramic Coated Headers are the ones you want. They flow great & fit great.
Dynomax also bought Blackjack.
