To buy headers or not?

AstatenateZ · 03-21-2018, 11:05 AM

I have AAM non catted test pipes, Z1 ported intake, Takeda short ram intakes, and a Top Speed Pro1 cat back!

I was really debating buying some Megan racing headers (as I found some at a good price $300) and also heard good reviews on their products!

My question is. Will I have much of an increase in sound or power, if I’m already running cat less test pipes, cat back, intakes an Z1 intake?

Currently am not tuned. But maybe planned in the future. I moniter my A/F-R and it’s not off and car runs very healthy, so tune isn’t really NEEDED at this point. So maybe in the future.

I also don’t have a CEL for my test pipes right now. I’m assuming if I removed the stock manifold and pre cats I would def 100% have a CEL and possibly throw A/F-R off.

So is it worth it? Or not?
