Default Headers In!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alls I gotta say is DAMN! I absolutely LOVE em!!!!

I chose the LG Street series and want to sincerely thank Manny for a great job on the install. He went above and beyond and takes great pride in his work. I have been wanting these for a long time and I am not dissapointed! Still need to tune, but there is a noticeable difference in low to mid range torque for sure. The ride home was wet, so it was all very moderate driving, but I think I scared the crap outta some people standing outside the local drive through window. These things sound MEAN!
Also got the 160 T stat, and tunnel heat shielding, and the car runs cooler.

To anyone who is on the fence about getting headers, JUST DO IT! you will NOT regret it, this is how a 400+ cavalli car SHOULD sound! (Those are horses, for the non EYEtalians )

Thanks again Mr Manny!


PS. Manny, Sunoco also wishes to thank you, I will definitely be using more gas now, because the car sounds so good I HAVE to let it rev harder now!

Right on Corrado! A set of LG's is on my list too - I met Manny and saw an install Manny had done on a C5 - and I agree he does great and professional work - glad to see we have a concerned supplier/installer to take care of everyone around here....
BTW - you can NEVER make too much noise....

Headers are the biggest bang for the buck in my opinion

I agree Desi. While Exhaust sounds good, you don't actually get too much more performance, but with headers, you do. Do 'em both and its all smiles!

Still wanna hear what my car sounds like from outside, might have to get someone to drive it so I can hear it. I hear Mr Mo offers this service for free, might have to take him up on it.

Rick, I remember that song!

Cam is the way to go buddy! That's what makes the headers really shine!

Last C6 we did that already already had headers picked up 45rwhp with just a cam swap! Driveability was barely affected and there was no loss of power on the lower end of the scale.



Ohh and did I mention that our dyno reads around 10 rwhp less than other dyno's?

You guys are making me feel inadequate with all these upgrades you all are doing. I'm in a porn movie surrounded by guys that are hung like whales.

I just have to keep telling myself, size does not matter, size does not matter.

Corrado, all you have to do is meet up with Mo for coffee and he'll do the rest! You don't even have to ask (inside joke)

Car sounds so sweet Corrado.
