The precats are on the y-pipe in the 2000-2001. You will make substantial gains putting a cattman y-pipe on. However, if you want your car to "be all it can be" you cant go wrong with headers! It all depends on how much money you are willing to spend, but I dont think you can go wrong with either. The new Gen 2 cattman headers, well... We shall find out the gains once I dyno my car on the 27th.

With a S/C, let me guess that with the headers you will make an additional 20-30 HP and TQ over the Y-Pipe. I'm shure the real number are very close to that but let see if someone has proven number on a dyno. Also going on a 3" exhaust with the headers and S/C might give you another additional 10-20hp. If you have the cash I think the headers would maximise the power output. My 2 cents.

Sounds like you will need some help of the install. I could probably do it same day. Just let me know when you get it in.

I physically went to Stillen's warehouse to pick up a few parts for my SC and while I was there I got a printout of their entire inventory, which said there weren't enough parts even to assemble 1 kit...

He must have gotten it from somewhere else that still had one in stock...I don't know.
