No noticeable gains with just the headers.
A better sound, lighter, but don't expect high gains.
The primaries are too big for a 2.7 or 2.5.

I have a set as well. Bolted in no mod except a trans line was close so we heat wrapped it . Other manufacturers put a small indent in the pipe but OBX doesn`t. I did`nt like the supplied gaskets. I went with another brand from a jobber. Sounds great. No cel`s either.

When I fitted mine I used the layered gaskets only for them to fail and blow out after a month of running. Fitted the proper single shim type gasket and all good since.
