Problem is I'd have to find some stock manifolds to buy or find someone to smog it on the side.

Keep your stock ones when the headers go on...

I actually ended up with two extra sets because the shops around here have so many, they forgot to put mine back on when I had the headers taken off for trade in.

CGM really grew on me when I had it. It was always my 3rd fav behind RJT and ABM but I like it even more now. I even bought a bottle of detail spray and cleaned the rental because I didn't want to drive a dirty car.

I would have been driving around in a yellow with black stripes, but they only had that in auto. CGM was my second choice and it was the only manual v6 in the valley at the time. and i didn't want to wait to order the yellow. I'm actually happy i didn't. I heart cgm now.

You made the right choice other than the manual.

Hennessey CAI, Corsa, ARH, BMR springs - front/rear sways, D2Forged wheels, painted dash stripes, antenna painted, window tint, Jannetty tune and some showstoppers stuff under the hood...

Most of this was on my CGM w/ black stripes that I transferred over.

Looking at VVT cam and Maggie right now... we'll see... Have a couple of estimates...

I thought about the DOD and VVT deal but after I received the quote from Andy (ADM) I decided to do a blower first. That was going to be crazy expensive.

I have Eibach springs and sways as well as slotted/drilled rotors, SS lines, powder-coated calipers too. Would like to go with XA coilovers but that'll have to wait.

The price actually makes me want to just go ahead and throw the blower in too.... I'm keeping VVT and deleting DOD and the crappy lifters...

I was going to keep the VVT too but I've read so many people saying not to. I figure for the money I'll get more power and satisfaction from the blower.

I think this is in order.
