Also check for any broken plugs. Some installers do not remove the plugs when installing headers = broken plug(s)

My $$$$ is on broken damaged wires...they are easy to break/damage when pulling off which is why I went with new wires after install and damage is hard to see.....I would say screw all the hassle and buy new wires....

Kooks 1 3/4 headers, 3" offroad X, to B&B PRT's. Stage II heads and a 230/236 cam also really help the sound.
