How much for a complete header job with exhaust? Will the headers add excessive heat under the hood?

Janetty Racing; can't recommend his package enough. L/tubes, CAI, hf cats and a tune. Different car. Best bang for the buck ever. No codes, no problems. c470 hp.

Not even gonna read all the replies, as I'm sure 99% of them agree on that it is indeed worth it. Especially when budget headers exist, there is no reason not to!

I would keep my stock catback and just add the headers first to see if you like the sound. Then if your wanting a different or louder sound then get the catback. You will not gain Hp from catbacks, just the Lt's. Also go with a 1 7/8 header. Finally you don't have to get cats, you can opt for catless mid pipe. I haven't had cats in illannoys since 2001 lol.

no one says anything about this but what kind of fuel is available where you live? The best I can get is 91 octane. Unless you take it somewhere and get an actual dyno tune for the fuel you can redily purchase, you are in for a surprise. In my experience and from the research I have done since....all mail order tunes will require 93 octane and if not used the ECM will drop into the low octane table. In this map the car is a dog. For me I have to add half a bottle of torco octane booster with each fill up ( $22 a bottle) to keep the car in the high octane map. My car is a toy so not the end of the world but if its a daily driver, an extra $11 a fill up would get old fast!!
Just a heads up, as I said I never saw any info on this prior to my purchase of headers and tune. |

Yes to headers all the way, it makes a huge difference and sounds great. For easy tune access, remote tune with DynoSteve or Janetty Racing works awesome!

CA: smog legal shorty headers with catless downpipes, the downpipes are fairly easy to replace with stock downpipes when you smog.

Don't do it, headers will cause a condition called permagrin.
