how did the power increase feel after install? was it woth it? im kinda of stuck, i want a nice exhaust note but im only going to do headers or exhaust. reason being to me if you do both the car is just too loud and i drive mine EVERY DAY. ark and solo seem to make good catbacks for the camaro but people say headers yield more power. which ever one puts out the most hp is what im going for.

Being completely honest I have no clue lol. I know they were doing something that afternoon and were tired when they got home so they never really did trick or treating.

But We got in at 1 am this morning and will be leaving tomorrow morning. And today was the ultimate forum of birthday control. Since this weekend is my nieces birthday weekend my sister had a part for her and little 2 year olds running around a room will make you not want to have kids for a long time

I understand that, but the love they give makes it up so much.

Did you see the youtube video of my little guy from last month?

I didn't feel another more power, but to be honest to only time I have ever felt a power increase was with my Cold Air Intake. I feel like my engine bay runs a little hotter since the install, that could be a factor on why I don't feel anything. Installed them in the spring also, but since it has been a little cooler around her, she has been a little peepier.

It was also worth it for me, it is probably my favorite mod.

Thanks for the input, do you have a exhaust though?
Its getting cold here also...... well Florida cold anyways lol and with just my intake and tune she is a beast right now. From what you're saying I think im going to go with dt shorty headers and the ark or solo catback. I'll have the best of both worlds and she'll put out some power still.

I have the MRT 2.0 and I should add that I have shitty headers. I bet a set of quality headers will give you gains you should feel.

If you're considering ark or corsa, I don't think you should have a problem doing both. The DTS is the best at controlling rasp and drone with headers

I don't think the quality has anything to do with it

i was going to say the same thing. the only way i could see someone having bad quality headers is if they are smaller than the stock ones lol

on another note.....is this true? in this vid only ONE hp was added from a full catback
