I might be getting a set of kooks long tube headers and high flow cats for my maggie. Just have to work out the shipping details will let everyone know if I do.

I remember this convo.

Yup and a set came up for sale that sounds like a good deal. If i get them I will be installing them at the shop close to my house.

Wow you're on a roll, dont stop now

Yeah I am addicted and just when I think I'm done a deal comes up and can't say no

you've got that modding fever!!! Ive been curious though about something here. Why are guys going with long tube headers on our cars (Maggies, Chargers, and Chally's alike) as opposed to short tube headers like the guys with Mustangs and camaro's? Is it just a personal preference? is there a performance difference between the headers and the cars, ie; Our LX's benefit better from long tube over short tube where the Mustang and Camaro benefit from short tube over long tube? Ive been a little confused to be honest.

ive looked into the kook's headers too.i might be getting them in the upcoming month or so,after the tires.now to find a deal on install..

i've got the kooks on my car, you are going to love them! nothing better imo

Well just sealed the deal on the headers and hi flow cats. Should be here next week so soon after that I will be installing them in the shop by my house. Anyone up for the challange to help me out?

I will be using a lift in the shop and they have every tool you could possibly need to get the job done.

If I were you Nick, I would spend the extra dough and have them installed at a shop. You don't want them to leak at the gaskets down the road. Of course I know your very capeable, just saying. #1 problem with headers is exhaust leak at the gaskets.

kooks come with the shitty felt gaskets, do like shawn said, buy some oem ones. also like tom said, if u dont tighten the shit outta those bolts you are going to have leaks. it will prolly be the top row too cause they are a bitch to get at from below. purchase some stage 8 header bolts to help prevent this, good luck!

I will be using the oem gaskets and stage 8 bolts.

HEY BOSS

BEFORE you install your new headers , you may want to think about ceramic coating them . i do not know the cost of your headers , you can keep them clean ,gain about 10% more H.P. and reduce the under the hood temp by about 100 d . this i know for a FACT ! you can do 3 colors , white , black or a chrome look .
if you like you can give me a call and i can give you more info .
