which headers are the easiest to install? I've heard that crawford headers are very difficult to install......I need help before decide to buy what header to buy......thanks

 

I don't know how you can differentiate between easy and difficult. One shop charges 3.5 hours for installation while another charges 6.0 hours for the same headers.

 

headers are a ***** to install.There is no real shop that is not desperate to do work, charging less than 5 hours..

 

STRUP. A local shop here install less than 4 hours. No need to lift the motor. I'll have mine install next week.

Call Charlie at STRUP (951-609-4995) and tell him Alex refer you, he will give you special price.

 

the borlas can be done from under the car with a lift, as shown in the instructions. When i first got my z i read a DIY that took 24hrs or so to do it. He took off the entire cooling system and tons of other stuff.

strups have good n/a gains?

 

Dyno gain at 14.1hp.



19 hp gain

 

cool....so strup would be the greatest one to go with......

 

for the price/fitment and HP gain. Yes.

 

you do realize the lifting the motor takes all of a whole 2-3 minutes??? One bolt on each side, put a little jack under and lift.

This would not deter me from buying a particular set of headers

 

we took crawford headers off a car and put stock manifolds off in 4 hours. we didnt have a lift, just jacked it up, unbolted one side and did it and then did the other side.

oh it wasnt easy, but we did it

 

We never had to lift a motor to install headers..
