Default Got my PT Header installed

I got my powertech header installed boys. 4-1 ceramic coated, lifetime warranty.

The welds on it could use some work, but overall it's a nice header. I had to drop the subframe just to get it in (being that it's a 1 piece). After putting the subframe back on, the header was contacting it. I had to remove it again and cut the lip off the frame. Put it back on, still touching it and brought with it added vibration. Took it off once again, grabbed my hammer and beat the **** out of it. Now everything is great! LOL. For future reference, sometimes 4-1 headers are not a "bolt-on" affair. I had to do some modifications. But it was well worth it.

The car pulls ALOT harder from 3500 and up. My second gear shift doesn't just squeal the tires anymore, it shreds them. Butt dyno says "wow". The tone is much deeper now and doesn't sound like a bunch of pissed off bumble bees

I will post #'s as soon as I get it dyno'd.

I would recommend this header for anyone looking to get a great value. List on the header is 389$ and I paid 151$ shipped.

Install time is approximately 2 hours for an advanced level technician.

Cool....I thought about getting a header but I think I will wait for my swap, oh yea, post the dyno when you get it. And also keep us updated on the MPG if it goes up or down.
