If you can afford the comptech headers, get them.

CT definitely are the best out there

i have alphawerks, and they're a great alternative to the pricey CT headers.

thanks for the help. yeah, i am a little new at this. quick second question. i started looking through some of the searches for headers and i was wondering what "porting" meant. some people were talking about doing something to the headers after they got them. i guess it adds to the flow out of the engine but what all can you do to headers besides just install them out of the box. like i said before, i love the car but i am new at this, so pardon all the questions. just tryin to learn.

The Obx headers I just took off have been through 2 other owners. Jonesi and Chopper, I don't know how many miles they put on them combined.The welds arent' as clean as comptechs but the performance is def there. No leaks or cracks here. Obx are fine but if you wanna spend the money, go w/ comptechs.

Sorry for a lame question.

Just browsed to the Allmotor_2000 post:

https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...ighlight=turbo

and it's clear - no noticable difference in power gain.
