does anybody have headers without exhaust?
I'm wondering if there is a noticable gain still with the addition of headers without freeing the catback part of the exhaust. Does anyone what kind of gains we get from just replacing cat back?
Basically, i want the extra power of the headers without the added sound of the exhaust system. Anyone have this set up?

I have (and many others have) the headers w/o out an after market exhaust. The exhaust is free flowing from the factory so the gains are minimal. Although I could swear the HKS gave me an added boost but I sold them because I didn't like the rumbling.

ya, mine is that way. Works great. All dynos from aftermarket exhaust show little gains. 1-3hp. If you want the sound go for it. Otherwise it's just a waste of $ for HP.

i first had headers w/ only a K&N for over a year. then i got an intake. then exhaust. the exhaust will make revveing much smoother going into vtec range.
