You guys are scaring me......
I drive an 04' sedan 6MT, I've done a search on header install/ performance gains and didn't find my answer so I'll post my own thread. I have a set of megan racing headders that have been sitting in my attic for a year now but never had the chance to get them installed so this spring I'd like to get it done, before I go ahead and do this I have some questions...
1. I have a partly stock exhaust aftermarket Y-pipe, coupe MIDI stock muffler and stock cats, if I install the headers will I notice any gains with my current setup?
2. should I invest in HFC or resonated test pipes when installing these headers?
3. will the sound increase allot with just the headers, or if I install HFC with headers will it be loud?
4. whats involved in the instalation of the headers, I'm hearing horror stories of removing allot of parts to do the install.
Basically I just want to know if I should go through with it or look for some easier way to gain some performance.

Wow, I would figure that since the engine is oriented from front to back that a header install would be much easier than on my Maxima with the engine sitting sideways. We always hear about how much of PITA the rear header is to install. I always thought it would be easier on the RWD cars.
My parts guy says that his resonated test pipes add 25 untuned, but i will try to confirm that for you.

i have aftermarket header, testpipe, and catback..
u have heard my car LOL its not that loud.
to anwer your questions
1, u will definitely feel the gain, but i suggest you to change ur catback and cats. More airflow
2 and 3, yes, you should invest on either test pipe or HFC, but make sure to get the right test pipe. Otherwise, its gonna be raspy.
I used to have header and HFC and the sound is pretty quiet for my taste. i personally think it is more quiet than my stock sound.
I have non-resonated test pipe now, and the sound is louder!!!
4, - -yes, it is pain-in-the-a$$ to install the header
but all the hard work is worth!

800$!! seems a bit much to me. i know on the G's it hard on the passenger side. unless you take the engine out for other reasons, headers are hard to install but hey at least its not a 300zx have you seen the room under their hood its so minimal.
