Re: Which Headers?

You can get full length Hedman or Hookers, black painted for
$150 - 200, or you can pay several hundred for ceramic coated. It also depends on if you want block huggers, short ones, 3/4 length ones. There are alot to choose from. You might want shorter ones if you want to keep the exhaust system hidden. Good Luck.

Re: Which Headers?

I've heard of a lot of cats with manual transmissions having clearance problems with the clutch linkage.

I would go with ramhorns!! They flow great and you wont have fittment/plug install/plug wire burnthrough problems.
