save your $ and get them both at once..Or if you are getting a good deal on the header go ahead and purchase it but wait til you get the reast of your exhaust before install.

No need to apply it and not have any gain and just be putting wear on the header for no reason. Wait and get the FULL EFFECT!!!!

Hoep this helps........

I miss my quick reply box!


You will barely notice any gains either way, installing the header yourself now will make it more easy and more fun to install you exaust later.

Usually a header improves air flow, less restriction, but not at any great percentage the DC sports header was tested to flow 15% better than the stock header, which would mean that you are pushing more air to the exaust? Or maybe your motor is creating more exaust? Na, just improves air flow, less turbulance less backpressure, you may get about 2-3 peak HP off of it with or w/o an exaust, do it now, if you are going to do it.

It'll be fine. I had my DC header on with a stock exahust, helped a little in the mid section, nothing worth writing home about.

Yeah I have my header on right now and I have been tooo sick to put on my exhaust....it's not a worry. But I do kinda wish I waited till I had time to do both at once. Believe me
