[attachmentid=18485][attachmentid=18484][attachmentid=18483][attachmentid=18482]Here are some pics of the Stainless Works 1 3/4" long tube headers along with the full 3" exhaust-offroad. I'll post more pics once it's installed. I'll also post dyno gains.

Wow. I would have a hard time sleeping with those in the garage and not on my ride. Congrats bro.

I'm still waiting to see pics with the front wheels lifted.

I just finished the install of the 1 3/4 headers and full exhaust. Reall nice. Take your time with the header bolts... you will need one bolt on the drivers rear top. Otherwise you can use the studs. I have the Racetech cats on it now. It's obnoxious loud! Car runs good. Will have it on the dyno this weekend.

How much does that 3-inch pipe weigh compared to the stock system? I know that becomes an issue at some point. I found with other cars that anything over 2-1/2 seemed to become the point of diminishing returns because of the weight.

They look awesome though, without a doubt.

I'm not sure on the weight compared to stock. I will TRY to find out. Hey Mr. Freedman, what tune do you have in your car, SCT or Diablo? Did you car lean out much after installation. What's funny is that I went to the people that installed my tuner and dynoed my car and the 2 mechanics said I won't need a tune. The said the A/F won't change much. I wanted to load a tune in the box for the 4.30's, turn off the rear O2 sensors, and make some sort of change to accomodate the headers and exhaust. The reason is due to them being scheduled or booked up through the middle of May. I'm not leaving it parked for that long and WILL get it tuned from someone else. I just find it hard to believe it won't lean out with the new exhaust. Atleast they could have adjusted for the 4.30's. The tuner made me feel like I was bothering him or something. I think I'll be going elsewhere for tuning and dyno time! I'll be posting more pics installed and dyno #'s.

I have a diablo tune but I also have the blower on it. The trims did change a little but the a/f at idle was mint. I'll have more info soon.
