Thank you

This thread cracks me up, maybe I just got lucky, but my Hedman "Elites"
have never given me any issues. They were easy to install, plug access is
very good, and they have never had to be re-tightened. I'm putting a set
om "Merlot" (Sligthly different part number since it's a 2wd) soon as I get
the funds to do it. *This for what it's worth is just my personal opinion.

Re: Manifolds or Headers?

That`s my point,too.It`s just a matter of preference.The differences aren`t worth a debate.We`d have to go way beyond exiting gases...

Re: Manifolds or Headers?

You fellers are funny.

I'd stick on whatever is cheapest. Your not going to notice a monsterous difference between headers and a set of factory ram horns. Both look cool.
