Finally got my headers!!!

OMG, I am soo excited because I have been wanting them for the longest but couldn't justify the ~$1300 price tag (without installation)! But the day finally came. I just got my headers installed today at PAA. But first I would like to thank kchen for selling me his headers for a great price and taking the drive to PAA from CT. It took about 6 hours to swap my stock headers to his car and his comptech headers to my car. We killed the time by chilling and eating at the mall and I even took him and his friend to my house and a tour of northern NJ.

Ok back to the headers. I don't know if it is just my imagination but my car seems much faster than before, especially at triple-digit speeds. I was flying down the highway and I was AMAZED! And combined that with the sound of my AEM CAI, I was definitely in heaven. Damn, now I have another excuse to get a speeding ticket.

WOOHOO!!!

Yes, after 5000 RPM. The pull has more "oomph" to it. It doesn't feel out of breath, for lack of a better description.
