TPIS headers installed
MTI just installed my headers and they look, sound and perform great. Gained 20 HP w/ my existing mods and the most noticeable gain was the vast improvement in off-idle throttle response. MTI guys make the installation look like a walk in the park. What they did in ~4hrs would take me an eternity and drive me :crazy:

Boy you did quick work on your 2002. You already got heads and Cam TC and Gears and now headers. Your Set!!
How do you like the 3.42's and TC??? That was going to be my next mod.
Have fun

Re: TPIS headers installed (jschindler)
How is the quality of the TPIS??? And where did you feel the biggest gains with the headers?? Man, you've gotta get exhaust done after the headers and heads/cam. You'll feel a big difference!!

Re: TPIS headers installed (Steve02C5)
I got these headers installed last fall and it really doesn't feel like an extra 20hp over and above your basic mods. (intake, exhaust). The intake air filter gave a bigger SOTP difference IMHO. I would guesstimate 10-12hp. :seeya

By chance did you dyno before and after the headers?
