Who has installed headers on their vert?

I have installed the SLP LM IIs so far but want to install headers, high clow cats and maybe X pipe. I like the looks of that texas speed header set up but talking to a couple of dealers it sounds like Kooks are highly recommended.

We just installed Stainless Works 2" Headers, their 3" "Mild" CB and a Roto-Fab Cold Air Intake. Picked it up 53HP/55TQ.

Video and build pics are in my link on my Facebook page.

Kooks Signature Series Stepped Long Tube Headers

Anyone have the Kooks Signature Series Stepped Long Tube Headers on their vert?

If so, no fit issues?

I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on some soon.

If they fit the coupe they fit our verts. The only difference is where we have that extra big brace right after the transmission might interfere with an aftermarket X pipe and muffler clearance.

I have the Kooks signature seriers headers. No issues. Maryland Speed shop was great to work with.

I had Vengeance Racing install ARH LTs, high flow catted x, and rotofab Cai. Took the advice of Ron Mowen on these headers and as always, I am not disappointed. Ron@Vengeance has always steered me in the right direction, when it was my 4th gen and now my 5th gen. Those guys have a top notch shop and top notch customer service. See my dyno results @

What are you guys doing to clear the braces with the x pipe? My '10 coupe was a pain to clear the 3" pipe.
