Finally Ordered Headers
So i finally came home today and thought i might as well give it a try. so i went ahead and ordered tsp 1 7/8 headers from tsp!!! so all that is left is the waiting game!!! Anybody think this will make me feel the diffrence? The only thing that is done to the car is intake, straight pipes and ported tb. please feel free to chime in thanks.

depends on how much you spent as to how much power you will feel..
the zl1 has 130 more horsepower than a 2ss and its what, a second quicker in the 1/4 mile?? ill probably get a set for my car too, but not for the advertised claims, i want the sound and the look when i pop the hood..

All the "good" LTs, with a tune, will produce about the same HP results; give or take a few HP.
You REALLY want to check your tuner before turning your car over to them. Tuning is like brain surgery for a car. If it's done right, it's a new car. If it's done wrong, the patient might die. Seriously. There is all kind of debate around dyno vs remote tuning. A good dyno tune is the best route but, if you don't have a reputable dyno tuner in your area, there are a couple of vendors on this site that can give you a very good remote tune.

I have a remote tune too and I generally agree. I guess it really just comes down to the tuner. I do wish I was closer to Matt or Ted though as I would love to put my car in their hands on their dyno.
A tuned L99 tranny is insane as compared to stock.
