BBK doesn't make headers for the v6, and MAC ceramic coated are fine.

BBK


yea BBK does make a pretty good amount of parts for the v6 actually, even shortube headers are a great deal better then stock exhaust manifold, there just not as good as longtubes. if you plan on T/C it shortubes are the way to go anyway around it, you can makea turbo work w/ long tubes however just not as good IMO

headers


im not saying if your gonna go out and buy headers to buy shorties, my point is if you cant get ahold of L/Ts for some odd reason shorties are better than stock manifolds

catless


I dont know my car got deeper IMO and sounds better catless. when I was putting my exhaust on my car i cut the y-pipe after the cats and clamped the h-pipe in place to c what it sound like with stock cats with my muffs. then i did it without cats i have recordings of both and IMO the catless sounds 2x as good
