Which short tube header?
I was thinking JBA but have heard the flange has a high rate of failure sealing properly. http://www.************.com/jbashhe20cav.html
Which brand is working for you with no CEL (including part number please).?????

Doug Thorley, welds up to cat pipe and no cel.sounds good and noticeable low end torque of idle. Engine compartment now as the famous, hollow, tinny header sound! car is quicker and sounds better, actually made car a bit more quite at low speed around town with cat back which worked well for me to help get rid of cabin drone of which I still had a bit.

I ahve 1500 miles on mine with no CEL. My drone went down also. The tone seems to be a bit mellower. (is that a word?)

Ivan@Southwestspeed had a great deal on the Doug Thorley Shorty Headers a few weeks ago. Send him a PM and ask if he has any more in stock and what kind of deal he can swing for you.
Personally, I'm loving mine. I'm breaking in the shorty headers and a catback exhaust; so, my drone is still there after about 500 miles. It's definitely become more smooth, mellow and quiet over time, though, and the increase in power is noticeable. I also seem to have gained a couple of MPG in the process.

If drone still bugs try the magnaflow resonated x pipe . It reduced drone alot and made sound deeper and more smooth. Also allegedly helps bottom/mid range torque.

Just to clarify, I would say the drone I get is very very tolerable. It's a little louder under load, such as when going up a hill.
