Hey Chris,

I have done this install approx. a year ago and I'm satisfied with the "butt dyno" results! Others have also done this mod with documented results. I'm sure they'll chime in to give you their input.

Here's my install (headers and 02 sensors), if you're interested:

Mike focke also has good info regarding the O2 sensors. I think that's also in one of the threads in the link that I provided.

....btw, don't mean to be a kill joy, but just remember that, in many cases, you do get what you pay for. So, just be careful about your expectations.

Good luck with that!

Hey DC, just got the SUREWIN headers off EBAY, and was wondering if I should bother dropping the Box off to my mechanic to install them, or are you swinging by my house to guide me through it? Beer and pizza????

Beer and pizza sounds lik a good deal to me!

Cool PTEAm, get in your jet (I know you have to have one too), and fly out this weekend. Beer and pizza/wings on me.
