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.

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