Any news about the progress??

nice job chad, headers are an awesome performance mod.

Header's are in but to be honest I'm disappointed in the sound. I was expecting them to be louder than they are.
I haven't driven it yet but I started it and revved it up in my tiny garage :D Then I noticed I forgot to put the oil dipstick back in so I'm just waiting for the headers to cool down before I put it back in.

I just got back from driving around and I have an exhaust leak. It's where the driver's side header meets the y-pipe. Should be an easy fix but annoying none the less.

On my next day off I'm going to take it to my uncles shop to have him double check it(I just want to be safe) and have him weld up the exhaust as I never got around to having my catback welded in.

Headers don't increase your sound that much- but hopefully you will notice a little more set of the pants increase.

I know how much of a pain headers are. I have down them a couple times now and every time they suck trying to put and get sealed properly.

Yeah but I now have an ORY so the two cats are gone. But I did get on it a little more today and the WOT sound is much better than it use to be. I guess this way I can't get around cops by keeping my RPM's low but really enjoy the sound by laying into it.

Anyways the SOTP's feel is definitly there, I love it!

Yeah the install kinda sucked but it was worth the money I saved.
