3) If you buy the headers and pay a shop to install them, you'll likely spend more than $1200.

It definitely sounds badass, though.
Yeah I was weighing out the idea. I figured if I sell those Hfc at a good price I should be able to get rid of it quick. When i installed them i tried hard not to put a scratch on them and wiped it down before starting the car.
Then for a second I thought I might have that rasp or loud hiss that everyone has been complaining about which I don't want. Also reading through some threads. It looks like the stocks manifolds do a really good job as it is.
I have some new tires on the way and so ill have some time to think about which way to go while I'm saving up. If I end up just running the stock manifolds then my next mod will be my tein suspension setup.
Decisions... Decisions... Decisions...
