So what is the cost to do a set of headers

All those headers and the rest of the exhaust parts look super fantastic

Thanks all. Can't wait to put them in but I need to wait until the roads clear up a bit before I can get the car home to my garage.It just snowed again ! I'll be posting pics when its done of course.
They cost me $400 including shipping back to me for the headers, x pipe, and the two small pieces. I was just going to do the headers but then I changed my mind and did it all except the cats.
Im hoping to get a little more sound from the factory TI exhaust along with the added power .

Thanks for letting us know that this is an affordable mod that not only looks good but will reduce the heat under the hood

Awesome looking, I had mine done too, just the Headers though.

I think for just the Headers it was about 275-300 bucks, then an extra 100 for all the way back including H-pipe so 400 for everything makes sense.

This does make a good bit of difference in your underhood temps.

How does the slip joints fit now with the coating? I wonder how much build up it is? I am having mine done soon. But I may take it to a local place that does the same thing instead of doing the shipping. But I want to go there and look at there work and see if it looks as good as Jet Hot. Those look fantastic.

Its not supposed to change color. I had a similiar coating on another car and it stayed nice for years as long as you dont overheat them while tuning or something. This coating is brighter and more chrome like than the other aluminum/ceramic coatings though. They have a good guaranteee too.
As for the slip joints Im not sure yet
