Question Ok, Need some info on headers

Just ordered the new Magnaflow SIDO cat-back kit (15749), I am now looking to order a set of headers that are easy to install (meaning not having to shift the engine around to install) and also wanted feedback about the highflow cats (worth it?). I really wanted to put a true dual exhaust on, but money is limited. Anyway, I do want ceramic coated headers, just not sure what brand and if I should go with shorties or long tubes. Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Keith

Cool

HI!... Since you have a 4x2 I would strongly suggest you spend the money on a set of JDM/KOOKS long tube headers. Get the S/S version and have them CERAMIC COATED inside and out. If you go this route you WILL have to go with some high flow cats (MAGNAFLOW). Here's a few pics of my set-up.

Actually, I have a 4X4, does this change my options or your opinion. I have updated my signature to show 4x4, must have missed that, thought for sure it was there.

Neal how much more are the JDM/Kooks? I have the JBA's I mentioned a while back, but I was also interested in maybe getting an upgrade.

HI!... MF150 : I got mine through MIKE T for about $875.00(U.S). They were stainless steel and then I had them CERAMIC COATED locally inside and out.
