header exhaust
i am getting alphawerks header in the next few days, and i am wondering if i need a complete new exhaust installed along with the header? I have heard from my friend that if you are putting a a new header in, a new exhaust system will be needed as well for some air flow reason?? if not, i will just have the header installed first, and then worry about the exhaust system later on. Thanks in advance.
i searched, but didnt find the answer i am looking for exactly.

yes, i have a type S.
okay cool... then i am just gonna order the alphawerks header and have it installed and run without new exhaust system. heard the alphawerks header dyno result is similar to the ct's... we'll see..

If it was better than 90% of the other places you called... why didn't you buy from one of the places in the remaining 10% that had a better price

I tried both, I feel the gain for both are similar... and i installed mine myself because all the places I called were asking for 300 or more...
