Has to be the meanest Headers EVER.....

OMG. The sound of these things are absolutely amazing! These headers make the car sound like a 1,000 horsepower beast! Check out the video. And it's only $800.00! I don't know how much hp you gain, but the sound says enough.

Check out the driveby.......just nasty!



The setup looks like it's headers and exhaust,....theres no way the stock exhaust sounds like that with just the headers. Anyone purchased these?

there are some people on here who have the whole exhaust i think...

but remember, that $800 doesnt include hi flow cats or off road pipes which are $242.35 on that website. just to keep in mind...

but sounds great

I've heard the complete JBA setup in person and it's a bit too loud for me. Some people will love it though.....just not for me.

It's a toss up between JBA and Stainless works for the loudest most bad ass exhaust. I've heard the JBA in person, only stories of the SW though.

I have their headers, and hopefully will be putting them on soon...

I'm considering purchasing the exact setup in the video, the Headers, Mids and Exhaust, does the company make pretty solid products?

I am debating between this setup, and the full kooks setup. This sounds awesome, would love to hear from some people that have it on a daily driver, im 23 and can probably tolerate a little more noise then some people but dont want it to be completely annoying driving to work and back.

i'm more or less concerned about the entire lineup's build quality, as i've never heard of JBA, which doesn't mean much since i'm not heavy into the modding world, however i'd like to know some feedback as i'm highly considering this setup

JBA has been around since the mid 80's.. They built the first smog legal shorty headers for the 5.0L Mustangs. My first set of JBA headers was back in 1990 on my LX Mustang. JBA makes good quality parts and their prices have always been great also.

Just my o2

Headers and straight pipes should get you about the same sound. I had this setup for a few days and I had to get some magnaflow mufflers welded in to tone it down.

It will just about make your ears bleed... im serious... but it sounds awesome outside the car at WOT.

but..... its hard to even think when your driving/cruising... even when you are just barely on the gas. Idle sounds a little sloppy too.

note: mine ended at the axle (it was a temporary setup because of a broken baffle in the stock mufflers)... so mine was probably worse than regular straight pipes. Everyone that heard it outside the car loved it and are now disappointed with the new mufflers.

My god, is this setup really THAT LOUD? lol. I let a couple of my friends hear see the videos and they think it sounds like a freakin nascar. How loud is it just cruising at 60? How loud is it when you floor it? :-)
