Default Headers back....

I already have Corsa from my H-pipe back but dont know what kind of headers I should get. I wanna do headers back and there is no laws here in FL so anything goes. Just want some suggestions on what I should do all the way back to finish it off.

I recommend LG Streets. Complete setup from motor to catback, with, or w/o HF cats. Lots of other choices, and about a million threads on the subject.

congrats on having the good luck of being registered in FL. i also am! as stated, a million threads on headers. American Racing, LG, Kooks, Texas Speed....your most common choices pretty much from most to least expensive. not necessarily from most to least preferred.

Any of those mentioned would be fine.

Also if you are going to be leaving the internals stock, stick with 1 3/4" primaries.

If you are planning on upgrading the internals, go with the 1 7/8" primaries.

Also if you run with no cats, you will get some extra "smell" so you might not be cool with that.

I'm running Kooks 1 7/8" longtubes with a full 3" off-road x-pipe and it sounds amazing. But it does give the immediate area a "smell".
