I know headers are the best thing u can do for the TL for the money and the substantial gains. Now i love the quietness of my luxury car, and i was wondering if i bolt up headers can i get away with not messing with the exhaust and still get the same gains? anyone ever done this? Id much rather not do exhaust but if i have to i will

 

I have basically all the bolt-on's except for the exhaust. From the catalytic converter and back, it's all stock. Still put down some good numbers on the dyno, and I have yet to see any problems arising from using headers without an exhaust system.

It's perfectly fine. Go for it. You'll love the extra power.

 

You'll be fine.

THe only people who see gains on this car with exhaust are those who ar FI. Otherwise, it is merely for sound.

 

EXACTLY!!!!!

 

our car's stock exhaust is pretty free flowing, therefore putting on a header isn't a big problem

my frd's sentra SE-R has a header with stock exhaust and it's like a fart can, the air flow got stuck and making a weird noise

 

you guys are awesome, just ordered springs, headers are next pay check...
and im assuming F I means FUCKING IDIOTS heheh

 

yea 03 TL S you better watch out if you get a header because i will slash your F*cking tires......and i know where you live

 

Hotboyindaacura sounds like a name for an OLD LEGEND , say 89???

what is thread now a bitch session, if you don't like each other then start your own thread so you bash each other, don't hi-jack this guys thread.

 

Sbuswell, incase u couldnt tell by the cities, were good friends, he was just fuckin around

 

that's cool, just didn't want a mess of back and forth BS going on. BTW I am from Jacksonville, Orange County to be exact, I hated it there too hot and humid and bugs are fucking huge, I have two scorpions that my gfather caught frozen and had encased in amber they are awesome, but remind me not to live there again. BTW 03TL_S get headers first but at least get a K&N filter also if you can't get CAI at the same time because the stock filter is restrictive and you won't see that much of a gain with stock filter, K&N helps a lot and take off the 7 gallon resonator under the airbox once you see it you'll laugh and say WTF was this tub doing here.

 

Forced Induction... turbo, super, nitrous.

 

this reminds me of the time I was kit on knight rider
