please dont waste your money with the Borla headers. You can get better quality headers for less money. Also if you search the forum you will find all the threads that talk about the HP lose with the Borla headers.

Borla headers are about as cool as the fat sorority chick that is always sitting on the steps at a frat house.

You should save your money for F/I.

You don't need headers with the Borla exhaust anyway. It's got plenty of meat as it is.

When I was running my Borla exhuast and then added the Borla headers I gain 9hp throughout the midrange and 2hp up top (probably in the margin of error there)... the Borla headers don't add much top end power (if any) but they do add midrange power.

Agree, much mid-range, this is one mod i wish i had done more homework before installing. not as much gain as advertised. nice sound, not overbearing, which is what i wanted. IMO the best mod for $$$ is the 3.91 FD if you're not going FI. the car's performance is totally different.

Do you know what kind of gain you had previous to your adding the header?
