Message	Is pointless. The ROI is so minimal it's not worth the cost or the labor or the crushed hopes and dreams. Again, IMHO. Headers (unless the engine is out) are a PITA, and everything I've read has said they are only good for 2-5 HP. That is quite possibly the ± error on the dynamometer. But, upgrading brakes and suspension is highly encouraged, as it makes the car more lively and fun to drive. "I'm glad I have the MSP mani's." - jschrauwen 22:20:13 06/10/08 "...Downpipes own.
