So I guess I should just put them on?

I just had the headers cleaned up on the inside by one of the major race engine manufacturers / car owner shops (roush)

So, I should be good to go,,,,,

I had mine installed in March '03, so it's been just about a year. I haven't had any problems. There was a resonance at various RPM, but I haven't noticed it in months. I think I may have a leak, but I haven't checked it closely enough. I kinda don't wanna check, ya know? I have, however, recently heard twice a rattling coming from near the cat, but I haven't checked it...too lazy. I've only heard it when walking to the car after it has been warming up for ten or fifteen minutes.
