Stillen Headers install

Ok got the headers installed yesterday , 8.5 hours , 105 degrees in the shop, FTMFW To Joe for doing the install for 200.00 $
The isstall was long and hard , just like 3rd grade.
Pulled out the shop it was 102 degrees, Butt dyno says the car was pullin hard as hell in that heat, low end seems to lag a bit, but roll ons from 80mph to 100mph are faster than ever before , gettin retuned @ Church tomorrow will post results

Good gains from the headers. Is that a dyno showing the gains from both the headers and hfc installed and what is that black coating on top of it?

Didn't know he was still doing header installs for cheap. Guess once I'm ready for a tune I'll get headers and have him install them. I think my car willl be too freaking loud. Already have test pipes and will be goin with a single 3" custom piping for my exhaust. I'll probably add a big resonator on the midpipe. Look forward to seeing your car and hearing how it sounds

I can't hear vids cos I'm at school and don't have speakers

The ceramic is supposed to keep things cooler , on hot days the heat generated by the headers negates the AEM cold air , the intake feels like it needs to be heat wrapped or somtin
