Hey guys,

I did a search but didn't see much about if running HR headers were worth it on our cars? I just bought an HR y pipe and a Coupe midpipe. I know if I buy the headers I need HR cats or HR HFCs. Just wanted everyones opinion about the headers!

Thanks,
Allan

 

are you ready to pay for labor to install your HR headers. I'm talkin labor costs that will probably cost more than your HR headers, HR y pipe, and coupe mid pipe, combined.

 

I will be doing the labor myself It won't be enjoyful but it saves me a lot of money!

 

DOOOOOOO ITTTTTTTT.....and post a DIY with tons of pics so I can haz popcorn

 

Due to the overwhelming replies I might just do it since there have been such good things to say about them in this thread

 

Do it yo. I wanna hear what it sounds like

 

No one has done it before because it sucks to install.

If you want to do it go for it.

 

^ what he said.. Do it ! Make sure u take tons of pics !

 

how hard are headers to install?? ive heard that you might have to drop the motor? i have full md exhaust with art pipes and they were a bit of a b*** to put in. wondering because im contemplating on buying some strup headers i found on craigslist. is it worth it?

 

I have never heard about the motor, but I hear that the steering rack is in the way, and thats about all I know.

 

I dont think you have to drop the motor, although that would make it 10x easier im sure. I have always heard that they are really a pain in the @ss to install on your own, and youll end up paying more in labor than the headers are worth if you get a shop to do it.

 

so in most ppls opinion its not worth getting them and installing on your own or getting installed? if its not worth it might as well put the money into something else for the car. just wondering

 

Shorty headers have never really improved much for the work to install.

 

That's what I'm gathering also. I guess Hydrazine has the right idea though. His test pipes that merge into one with the option of going though a single cat.

I guess some longtubes into a single cat might work. If you can get the dual 02s to play nice nice.

 

That's gonna be a pretty tough job. GL.
