I finally have a full 3" exhaust, and all I can say is WOW!
Yes, my car shakes the bowels of hell and can out drone any other car. It still sounds damned good to me.
I know crows_camaro wanted to know the performance gain from this, and the answer is still WOW. I didn't expect to be able to feel a big difference, but I really do. My stock exhaust manifolds were leaking, so that might be the reason I feel such a difference with these new headers. Even though they're CIA headers, I had to order Pacesetter gaskets because CIA would've taken over two weeks + shipping time to get me their gaskets.
The temperature in the engine bay also roughly seems to be about 5 degrees lower than when I had the stock exhaust manifold on there.
So, in summary - CIA headers, a 3" carsound, and a loudmouth will make your car louder than most jet aircraft. However, I felt an awesome performance gain and lower temperatures.
:D :D :D :D
