alphawerks headers installed!!!!
I got 'em installed. They are doing good, however, there is a little resonance that I think is normal. 3rd gear really pulls now 
I went to the track 2 days ago, did 15.3 (second time ever in my life), so I consider it pretty good. I'm going back tomorrow to see the difference. Obviously, the temperature may be different than what it was 2 days ago, but who cares 
I can't wait...
I
for 14.6 - 14.7. I'll put my 17 stock rims on the front and drop the tire pressure to 21 psi and heat up the tires a little more than last time. That should help

You got 3 days for the ECU to reset itself. 
Glad to hear you're liking 'em. i'm in the market for them @ the end of October as well I believe..
Hey Berny, what exactly does resonance sound like?

with headers and cai, you should run 14.6... but when you're not used to the track (like me), its pretty hard.
I got the ct icebox. I just received my UR crank pulley (to be installed in 3 days)... and gonna get the ct b-pipe to let off a little more restriction

the resonance is just when the engine is cold, lasts for 1-2 minutes and its only at idle. .... however, I find there is a little whistle (which can be a leak cuz leaks make much more sound then that)... anyways, the headers are great up until now
