What kind of gains are you expecting from that mod?

Sweet! Post up some before and after sound clips when you're done.

How much did that run ya?

I just helped my friend install some Kooks custom headers on his C5 Vette. We did a bunch of other mods so the install was fairly easy.

Nice! Looks like a well built header too.

Looks as easy as doing the header on my Accord. More than enough room and everything is right in front.

Re: got my header today =)

Four cylinder mazda? Youre right it does look quite easy. Did the gas mileage improve or decrease with the headers?
