what should i do first. i want the headers for the extra power and sound, but on the other hand the car handles like ****! eventhough i spent too much money this month on this car (inspire tails, ordered mugen grille, and waiting on cls chrome wheels). man, its the winter blues, it cheers me up to buy toys for the car, who needs food, rent money...

Start with the sways since they are soo much cheaper, and that way once you get your headers installed, your tires will stay on the pavement when taking the turns full throttle.

I kinda like taking turns right now without sways, because I get on the gas and squeal my inside tires because the weight is shifting to the outside tires. Its fun when you want to get some attention. No so fun when cops are nearby though. Hehehe

I'd say go with the headers first, as long as your car is lowered already.

Headers make such a big difference, you have to have it man....

i would go with sways. one of my friends had them installed at park ave acura with comptech springs and alignment for a total of $350 in labor. I was looking around and that has been the best price in the north jersey area. They are located right by the garden state plaza and close to many major highways. I heard the tech Jens is excellent.

I'd say get the sways first. They really help the handling.

Hey guys, do the headers really make that much of a difference? I still haven't convinced myself to drop the $$ for them.

 

Headers add about 30hp. Thats a pretty big difference to me
