My opinion and experience: Do not get the MAC headers, the quality is bad, the fit and fnish are bad also. I've seen and I know many people that are very unhappy with MAC products. No flames for the people that have them, if you like em that's your deal. I would get BBK Longtubes ceramic coated(Jet-hot), they are like $380, and I would get there O\R shorty H-pipe too. The coating might seem like alot more now, but in the long run, they'll last alot longer, and much look better(than chrome, or unplated.) If money is not an object, I'd get Bassani Longtubes($580+), and their X-pipe($200+). But if was I'd go with BBK's system. It's about $500 vs. about $800+.
