Any experience with BBK headers?
I was looking at going with some high flow cats but I saw on WCC's that they sell BBK LT's with high flows for like $200 more so I figure that's a good bargain I'm interested with going forward.
Just a few questions, I have a muffler delete kit so will my car drone like a mad man going down the road? I got the Solo muffler delete and to be honest at cruise it doesn't sound much louder than stock. I want to get louder obviously but I want to be able to hear my music going down the road  Also obviously once I got longtubes I'll need to probably get a good dyno tune so I can actually make use of them |

From what I have personally seen, BBK fitment is terrible. Steer clear.

Just noticed Texas Speed offers some good bang for the buck headers. |

Also if you don't mind what are you making at the wheel with your mods?

Do a search on here. Quite a few of us have installed them and not one of us has had fitment or quality issues so far. 355 delivered to your door with o/r extension pipes and O2 sensor extensions when I bought mine. Hey, it's your money. Spend it how you wanna, we're just trying to help you out.

I don't wanna drop $1,000 for headers, I'd just like something that will fit nicely, make some extra horsepower, and sound good  I think I'll pull the trigger here in the next month. Gonna make sure nothing crazy happens with my new job and once I'm settled I'll go for it. |
