Default More shorty header questions...

Are they worth paying $300-400 for if a supercharger is being used? will the gain be significant enough?

Sound...do shorty headers affect sound like long tubes do? i want it to roar!

I did a lot of things to my shorty headers so that they would flow. I'm extremely pleased with the gain.

My car is a little louder with my Hooker shorties, carsound cats, and B&B Tri Flos compared to my old setup of the stock manifolds, no cats, and B&B Tri Flos. More power and legal, win-win in my book. :thumbs:
