hmm looks liek to me that turbo would mount in front of the motor.. and would use stock manifolds or any set of aftermarket headers really.. no need for a turbo manifold there

If you have a 2000+ V6 it has the tubular manifolds which should do fine for a turbo setup unless ur lookin for like ALOT ALOT of power. Then you should get some custom ones made for that setup.

K guys, I would like everyones imput on this, I just need some help on where to get my stuff from. I can get my magnaflow for 359 from many sites, so thats settled. I have decided to go with ceramic coated headers from pacesetter, I just need to know if anyone has any good sites to get them from. The cheapest Im finding them for is: $338.71 at http://ftpp.net/V6/Exhaust/v6_headers.htm . Im not sure wether shipping applies.

Be prepared to wait quite a while for your shipment. I have done business with FTTP.net, and twice it has taken 3 weeks or more for me to get my part. I'm still waiting on something I ordered on December 27th. They do have a good V6 selection, though. The other 2 times I've ordered from them, the timing was average or slightly below. aybe I just got unlucky twice?

Badly needed spark plug wires (MSD 8.5's). They took way too long to get there, so long in fact, that I had to go to NAPA and get a set. They came 4 days after I bought the NAPA wires, which I should not have had to buy. Right now I'm waiting on some heat wrap tape for my wires that are near my headers.

Wow, when I had my 3.4 Josh always sent out the parts as soon as I ordered.

Yea, I had the same experience with the first few parts I ordered from him, but after that....

It's okay though, the heat wrap isn't vital right now. I do plan on doing more business with him in the future. Possibly a whole cam kit in a year or so. He's got a great selection of 3.4 Cams.

is he doing this stuff on the side, or full time? If on the side or alone it takes a while to get caught up. If you are in a hurry never order online

Don't know if it's on the side or full time (I think on the side) but I do know he's the sole owner.

Question:

I noticed that they have header bolts for sale, and I know it would be a good idea. Just curious what the avergage price for these should be, or is $48 an actual decent price? Do you guys think I should pick some up (Im guessing I should), and how much should I be paying?
