Think positive man

I have watched this thread for a while now and finally decided to register a name because I have wanted to post so much under this thread. I'm waiting myself for headers and I'm wanting Kooks im just curious how they will work on your car.

Good luck and keep fingers crossed

Well guys....I have some Bad news but yet some good news for me...Kook's is currently moving their operation from Bay Shore NY to Statesville NC...They have been dealing with me and trying to make the move for the past month..I am still getting the car tomorrow but the system will not be complete.. they have the headers and Cats installed on the car but they have to use the rest of the stock system until the can make it in the new shop in NC..The 1st run of X pipe and muffler system will be shipped to me ASAP at no charge (yes it's going to be in writing)...A great group of guys but they just have their hands full right now. they got all the prototyping done and will ship everything else as soon as it gets made..I don't know what else to say at this point other than I will be waiting a bit longer...not happy but what can I do at this point. Sooooo...the Saga continues

Indeed the waiting Sucks however you are getting a lot of this done for a small $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ price . I'm sure if they put it in writing they will follow behind with a product VERY soon.

Waits patiently along with ya lol congrats on what you have so far.

Post some pics of what it looked like now with the headers on if you can.

Well , now I am just waiting for the rest of the system...The headers are awesome...Kooks took some photo's of the full system on the car and they will be posting them on their website. Chris is supposed to be sending me the pics via E-mail also. For now they have coupled the headers up with their high flow cats and sent it back into the stock H pipe and mufflers...it is a bit louder and sounds nice...they are shipping me the X pipe and rest of the system when production starts at their new Facility in Stateville NC. It will be 3 inch pipe all way back

...now just waiting for Vararam for a CAI

...Then a Tune....

..I will post up when I get pics

Due to having way too many highly modded very fast cars, my wife has made me promise that I wouldn't go into the motor on this one. So we agreed on all bolton's, she's all right with a Supercharger being one of the bolton's, so some nice Kooks headers will go nicely with the charger setup. Can't wait to see them, and can't wait to see a before & after dyno.

*radz28* · 06-15-2009, 02:42 PM

Too bad about the situation, but it sounds like the hard parts are done. It'll only probably take an afternoon and a few beers to swap out the rest of the exhaust for the new catback, so that's not too bad. Post up some sound clips so we can add it to the list

Congrats' though

tones2SS · 06-15-2009, 05:01 PM

Got any videos of the current set-up?
I would like to hear it if possible. THANKS!!

DET MUSL · 06-15-2009, 06:00 PM

Hope you didn't pay for it all up front......

I am waiting for them to send me the pics and vids...they will prolly have it up on their website before I get them..I'll try to get some posted myself...I'll watch thier site and youtube to see if they post up.

Badger · 06-18-2009, 01:11 PM

Here you go guys..the Video of a few Revs when I picked it up..smoke was from the grease used to bend the pipes....note it is Kooks headers with thier high flow race Cats..then into the stock H pipe to the stock mufflers.

Badger · 06-18-2009, 01:17 PM

They also have some pics of the prototype exhaust that will be on it when they ship the rest to me.... Looks like $ 2,400.00 for the complete system...http://www.kookscustomheaders.com/show.php?pid=890
