So with winter half way over and a tax refund on the horizon I've started getting the mod bug again. I'm really torn on what to go with next, Headers or a tuning device/wide-band combo since they would complement each other nicely but ill probably only be able to afford one in the near future...

So what should i go with?
Is it even worth it to get a tune with my mods? (does allow for a larger MAF though)



Just trying to get opinions on what would give me the most bang for my buck

 

def headers but be VERY WARY of the safety/ emissions check

 

Does ohio even have emissions????

 

its by county, so some parts do but im good in cbus

 

Yeah cause my car from Green county didn't have it that's why I was wondering....

GET HEADERS!!!

 

Just ordered my headers today, OP jump on this too. 20+ whp. Best mod for our cars and I can't wait until I install mine.

Cattman about 870 shipped
OBX 350-380 shipped (depending on your wheeling dealing skills) Ebay has them for 350+30 for shipping and I talked a vendor down to free shipping.

OBXs are currently available but I don't know for how long so get in while you can. Last time they were out of stock for almost a year.

 

Headers as your next mod.

 

So it sounds like headers by a landslide, Thanks Everybody

 

If you're only going in a straight line, I guess I'd agree that headers perhaps.

If you actually drive this car you should be saving up for coilovers, that's your next item.

 

I actually love how it rides now on the illumina's and drop zone springs, Which people love to criticize but its a fairly civilized ride, 2" drop is perfect (Think it has one of the best drop looks as far as our springs go, obviously it would look perfect with CO's) and corners like a beast... well a Maxima beast anyways, but still way ahead of the stock se springs

 

As far as handling goes, nothing compares. But, if you're happy with it, then that's all that matters! And at the end of the day, it's still a crappy handling car no matter what you do. But anything is better than stock

A BBK is highly suggested as well, with the 5th gen brakes already being borderline unsafe for the vehicle speed and weight, I'd be going after those brakes quick. not just safety man, you'll enjoy driving so much more with nice brakes.

 

Like majority already said HEADERS, I love mine...

 

I see some people are turning this into a suspension v. headers choice.

I will say the headers first because you will definitely see more stoplights and mustangs than empty sweet ***, sweeping, curvy roads. Just my .02

 

I agree. brembo brakes lol

 

Hmm now a BBK is an idea... I might have to look into this some more, Plus i can do brakes by myself, Headers would def need a call to the bullpen
