Before you spend money on headers and cats you should talk some someone who actually dyno their car before and after spending the money. I think you will find that's alot of money to spend for an extra 25-30 RWHP. Put the money in a H/C set up or SC it to get real bang for your buc

If you invest in a H/C setup or SC you will leave a lot of power behind if you don't also do the headers.

[QUOTE=Dan_the_C5_Man]Err, how about being a responsible member of society? Sorry, but this is a pet peeve of mine (and other CF members as well.) And look at the first response you recvd. Clearly the only "concern" was if the driver could smell / choke on the exhaust, screw everyone else!(?) QUOTE]
