Yup, the welds and build quality are a work of art. It is a shame the stainless steel will bronze a little once they go through a few heat cycles but they still look great in the engine bay.

You'll love the new exhaust note. On my Muffler Modded stock catback, it sounds just aggressive enough with the flaps closed. I always felt it was too quiet stock, so I used to open them up when just driving around. But with the headers I rarely open them up anymore. It sounds pretty aggressive just idling.

With the flaps open, it is quite loud, so be mindful of who is around (local authorities) when you let it rip. It is like shooting a flare into the sky, letting everyone around you know where you're at and your pending hooliganism.

Yeah, not at this moment, I will be doing a Dragon Pro street Engineering DX9 cam and Colorado Speed and performance will be porting my heads.

Aside from them looking nice, how do they perform next to American Racing Headers, kooks Headers, and LG?

Took my car in today cuz I was hearing a ticking noise after I had the oil changed 2 weeks ago. And the tech finally got to duplicate my complaint. result is a few sticky lifters. so my cts-v lifters and cam are going along with the headers. and I dont't have to do it!!!
