the shorty headers will give you no gain and be a waste IMO. there is no reason to get them, save that money for something else. everything else looks good and yes your creditcard is save on those sites, i have ordered from AM and mufflermall.com and been very pleased with the customer service.

how so? IMO they arent worth it and give you almost no gain at all, they should only be used as a replacement if something happens to the stock ones or you go f/i and get let l/t headers, i was just stating my opinion

2001 Ford Mustang V6 revving and idling
Stock Shorty Headers
Custom made O/R H-Pipe
Flwomaster Original 40 series mufflers
Magnaflow 18x4" SS Tips
2.5" Exhaust Piping

thats the exact same set up i have except i have cats and different tips, so the "so many things done to it" is he has removed the cats, which yes makes it a little louder and raspier but basically thats what mine sounds like. apparently you havent heard flows in person

That makes no sense at all. I'm new here and I'm not trying to argue but I know the owner of a custom fabrication shop and the dude has built custom exhausts for years and told me otherwise. 15-20 in gains is what I have been told... Why do you think shorty headers do "nothing" at all?

whitemustang02 · January 6th, 2008, 04:04 PM

the reason for small gaind on our cars i sbecause it is even firing ordre so the stock manifoldes can do just fine at removing the gases, and there isent to much of a back up
