American Racing Headers..pics

Sorry guys, first time for my car back up in the air after having AR Headers installed at Carlisle..plus tune at ECS..You think the C5 looks fast standing still?? how about standing still from underneath..I just think these things look BAD A$$...they sound pretty good too..

Also..notice how nice they fit up in there...the X-pipe is HUGE as compared to the one I got from Corsa..anyone looking for one slightly used Corsa X-pipe..

I just installed TPIS headers on mine, LOVE the growl they added at WOT even with the Ti catback.

OP:
What floor jack or jack attachment do you have in that picture?

I like your tubes.

I am thinking about picking up a set but I have a feeling they will be really loud when paired with my B&B RT.66 Ovals.

Every time I see these ARH's installed I start thinking about getting them but the cost of the headers, installation and tune is about $2K. Guess I need to start saving up.

Perfect setup... since I have exactly the same setup! I have the AR 1-3/4" headers and X-Pipe with the Corsa Pace car cat-back system. It sounds awesome under WOT and does not sound too lound when cruising.

Good choice!

I've got the A.R. headers also. East Coast did the headers, Vararam, therm, and tune. I already had the Borla Stingers and x pipe. I know you will be happy cause I was! Congrats
