It's no big deal. I knew what I was getting into. But I have NEVER had any issues with all the other new cars I bought so I rolled the dice. I would do it again tomorrow. Loved the car even more after I did it. It was just a one in a million problem.

...Sensor issue...hmmmm....an easy check might be the MAF sensor...either it went bad or is a "weak" one and is acting up...which is not too uncommon with a lot of mods....

Based on mod level, I'm assuming that you have a simple/cheap code reader? What's the code read?
Any misfires or rough idle issues? Maybe a broken valve spring? (trying to account for engine ticking/exhaust note change) Possible vacuum/exhaust leak issue? (again, potential source of ticking...unmetered air can prevent engine from re-starting as well)

The codes indicate that it's a CMP sensor which has something to do with the camshaft.

Ya that's what I found out too. Think it will be more of a pain int he ass logistically than anything else (I Hope). Maybe this is a sign that I should SuperCharge it

Dude, about to take the plunge with headers (sitting in my garage) but reading stuff like this scares me off.
Keep us updated.

It wasn't the headers. The code said it had something to do with a camshaft sensor. It could of and might have failed if my car was bone stock. I am still glad I did this and would do it again. It was a one in a million failure
