    well ive got the ramair air box and the hood, should have it on this week. SO the (at least) SLP intake will just offset the ramair? Also I see people saying QTP AR and Pacestetters for heads, is there much of a diff between these all. I see QTP is almost 700$ and thats without the Y pipes.

    Are you talking about heads or headers? Headers are part of your exhaust system. Totally different than heads. I think you may be thinking of headers since you are talking about pacesetter and QTP.

    Ok then......if you go with longtube headers you will need to get a new y-pipe or opt for an x-pipe and true duals. you will need at least a new y-pipe due to the length of the headers your stocker will be too long.

    some people say they notice a seat of the pants difference but I personally did not. My car just sounded meaner. I did notice that my car was quicker to spin the tires but it didnt really feel as if I gained a lot of power until I went to the track. Either dyno your car before and after to see the difference or take it to the track. stock I ran 13.4, after headers, true duals, lid, ported tb, i ran 12.9. after LS6 intake, SFC, STB i ran a best of 12.7 but consistent 12.8's all on street tires maybe a little better with DR but havent ran them yet.
