AlphaWerks Headers installed
I got my AW headers a few days ago and on Friday I had someextra time so I put them on. They fit perfectly, no leaks, no hassle, even all my stock parts came off without being a pain in the ass. Took about an hour and a half to put them on but damn the welds on these headers are very good inside and out. I test drove it and when I get into the higher rpm's I feel dramatic results. I'm extremly glad (so far) that I purchased these for 300 instead of buying CT headers for 1100. I definitly recommend AW headers for anyone in the market for exhaust upgrades.

Once I get my custom Borla cat-pipe in it will put the headers into tone. Plus, I'm getting my car dyno'd before and after I get my Zex wet-kit put on so I'll let you know how the AW's perform.

Well fellas I just got rear-ended yesterday and my back and front bumpers are annihilated. My airbags shot off too, so I'm not gonna drive my car for a lil bit and hopefully it will still be there when Frances rolls over. I did notice a low-end torque decrease, but it is not effective at all and the high rpm power gains make up for it so it's not really a critical factor.

Very interested in the AW headers .......and interested to hear more feed back on these ...they sure look good . Has anyone run them for some time ....?? Speed Stash have the best price @ $429.00 ........certainly would be nice if a group of us could approach them for a group purchase . It's difficult for me to help out in organizing a group purchase because I'm in Canada . But ,if someone in the US of A wants to get it going count me in as a buyer .......David ( old but still a motor head ..Haven't had this much fun since my Ford flat head days )

Yea, if someone can get a group buy going, i would def. get in on it. Those seem like a great deal and a very good altern. to the comptechs to people who dont have 1000 dollars for headers but still want them.
