Nice purchase!!

 

[Tahoewhat]

Always nice when things come in..

What kind of headers?

 

[Phantomx55]

OBX, anyone have any issues or additional items required when installing these? I have heard of some problems with plug wires being stretched too far

 

[Arctic-Rodz]

Man, those look nice!
How much, IF you dont mind me asking? and do you know if they make em for Z71's?

 

[Phantomx55]

You can usually get them for about $300 for the headers, but the people who had them at that price are backordered. I paid $450 from someone else cause I really wanted them before my tune.

u got some good stuff there. ive got a obx header on my beater civic and have had no issues over the past few years if that helps

Got the passenger side manifold off, went to try the drivers side and got the plastic out of the wheel well just to see the first bolt missing its head...Having it towed to my uncles shop to get it drilled and tapped and have him finish the job for me

post up some pics when done. Got to love new shiney things under hood. At least when new.. also how you like them, diff, etc.

Well just got my truck back from header install...Nightmare of a job...Silverado headers aren't identical like I hoped..But they are in. Gonna put the corsa and take some pictures in the morning.

Got 1 pic of the underbelly for now

Plus the corsa after it came in on tuesday =)

I haven't noticed any performance or sound difference from the headers...But the remainder of the exhaust is still stock til the morning..Should I notice differences on headers alone?

 

[Tahoewhat]

Nice and shiny.. Noticed no diff huh? I thought you should, i think you may more on top end? but not sure. Get the tune and you should notice a diff. no doubt.

 

[Phantomx55]

Yea if any, maybe a sliver of some improvement on the top end, maybe I will notice it more with the rest of the exhaust in and especially after my tune this saturday

 

[dwmmatt23]

Oh man im jealous of those three

 

[Phantomx55]

Got the exhaust in and the tune done. Here are some pics:

As everybody says, the difference is night and day with the tune. Feels like a completely different vehicle now. Exhaust is extremely loud at open throttle, but is very toned down at idle or while cruising. Sound is exactly what I was after. Gonna try to get the fans and servo in this week to complete this project. Also threw some new plugs and wires in.

 

[Tahoewhat]

looks good. Man is that close to the crossmember, ( i think) at least the bolts are anyway. But looks good. Do you have any sound clips?

Nice, so what kind of improvement can you notice?
