Default Yet another header question

Looking at either Kooks, Dynatech, or LGM headers for my 02 coupe. Really want the LGM's.

I've been reading about the install for the Kooks and I'm a little leary of doing the install in my garage.

Do the Dyantech and LGM require similar efforts for install?

Any links to pages that illustrate the install for these 2 brands?

Did a ton of searching on the forum, lot's of great info, thanks to all for posting their experiences.

i don't post in many header threads now that i had made my header choice but can say that i am completely satisfied with the kooks and can move on to the next mod. imo, you can't go wrong with kooks.

good luck on the decision.

Thanks guys. Don, did you get your car tuned afterward? How much power did the tune add additional to the headers?

haven't gotten to tuning yet but would like to. probably can squeeze a few more hpower out of a good tune. i'm considering a cam upgrade this year so will do it at that point. untuned, the cars running great though.
