Hey, I just signed up for this forum and have already found it helpful. I purchased my Victory Red 2LT with HUD and RS package less than two weeks ago and have just received my BBK long tube exhaust headers and high flow cats in the mail. I'll also be adding an Airaid CAI and throttle body spacer, and purchased the tuning through Trifecta, the rest should be here in the following week. I love my car but I've never done an install like this, the website says that the install should only take about an hour or hour and a half and it's a straight bolt on with no cutting or welding.

Excited I opened up the package to find very cryptic directions with no pictures. Having minimal mechanical experience this seems like it may be an issue getting into it. Has anyone else bought these headers and installed them? How bad was the install? How great is the performance increase? What should I get realistically in power gain with the CAI, throttle body, BBK headers and Trifecta tune? Thanks for you input! Love this forum.
