Default Need advice on headers.

I am looking for an exhaust system for my 98 coupe. I helped my brother do a complete install on his 2001 SS Camaro. We are not mechanics but we were able to install the TTS headers, Y pipe, and Corsa cat-back system in my garage. I am not set on any specific brands, but I do love the sound of his Corsa. My priorites are in the ease of installation, sound, and price. Could anyone recommend some headers that will be a direct fit, and are not too difficult to install.
Thank you

LG's full system, then the Corsas. Expensive, but worth it.

I mostly use either TPIS or FLP's. If you want to do it your self with no welding I would recommend the FLP system. :seeya

David, off topic but I have to ask, where did you get your rear wing?

Thanks.
