C2;488935']yeah for real

why not buy MPRacing's turbo headers?

mainly because i dont have 429 dollars to fork over for headers alone... i want to get the headers like aftermath had on his, efficient enough and cheaper...

i tossed around the idea of a 1st ever backmount alero but upon looking i dont see the room in the back..

also i considered trying to cut back the downpipe after the rear header and put it back there like on the 4 cylinder and the connect back to the downpipe.. but i dont think there is enough room to fit the charger and the pipes in that area..

basically just trying to be more creative and outside the box.
although making my own headers like aftermath had on his is possibly the route i may take,. i really wanna pic this up again....

yes if i had 429 lol... getting money upfront on group buys is hard.. by the time the money is ready and things will be shipped i may not have the money anymore. i would possibly buy it if i could pay and have it made now not wait until 10 are ordered...

yeah, I'd say. IIRC, headers of any kind that are worth a damned are upwards of 600.

am I allowed to say c0ck on here and not have it look like the word "chicken"? I know, that was kind of random.

It depends, half the people on here can see unfiltered words, while you and others get hilarious censors. I see things as they are.
