No but it will sound cool and frighten the driver in the other lane. All part of a winning psychology.

won't really provide much gains, if any. Wouldn't be able to drive it very long either. There's so much stuff right at the end of the headers/manifold that can/will melt. If you're going to do it I would get a cheap set of dumps to move the exhaust further away.

or put test pipes on then remove exhaust... but like junkie said too close to too much to just run right out of the headers

oh when you are removing the headers dont try to do the conventional way, removing the bolts. they are a pain in the **** to get to. use a compact dremel and cut the header off, its much easier and quicker.

Routing the headers back only works if you put a pantie wet, derect injected nitrous system into the cylinders.
