The pictures dont do much justice for the finish coating. Its a chrome like finish (for now at least)

I REALLY want to put them on this weekend, but my dad and my brother might be working on remodeling our kitchen. But if I can't get them on this weekend, i''m considering going to get my car dynoed before I put them on just for everyone to finally know what exactly these will do. Its pretty expensive. $100 so i'm gonna be dropping a quick $200 just to see what the difference is with S&S Headers. Still kind of undecided, but I would like to know the numbers for myself, and to benefit everyone else who may be header shopping.

I will try and keep everyone as informed on the whole header process as possible, cause I know I would have appreciated lots of info when I was header shopping, so stay tuned for details in the near future :thumbsup:

So are these about the same quality as TOG headers?
This is my next upgrade, and if its only 600bones shipped I'm closer than I thought!

Well, im not going to spark another S&S vs TOG debate, so let me just say the facts.
I have never seen TOG headers in person, so I will not say anything about TOG quality. My S&S look and feel to be very good quality. The coating on them looks perfect. As far as the power difference, I can't say cause I havnt installed them yet, and it looks like I wont be able to get them on for another week or so ( )
In the meantime however, since I am going to be waiting so long, I am going to try and get a base dyno test, and then another dyno after installation.
As far as price, that is what I paid for them on 10-19-2004, at the time that I ordered them, they informed me that prices would be going up, due to increases in steel costs. How much they have gone up, I can not say. Either way, no matter what brand header you get, im sure that the quality is great, and the performance is also great. Good luck :thumbsup:

It's $499.95 for JUST the coated headers only...that $900 price is for headers, flex, and cat.....save your money and don't get the cat from S&S they want like $250+ for it...get just the Headers and Downpipe.

so should i get a high flow cat from somewhere else or do i not really need one?, i was gonna get the headers, then get all the piping redone to 3 inch, and then get a better flowmaster setup in the back(dont ask, long story) and then that would be a really good exhaust :thumbsup:
