Yeah, but the foil crinkles. Best try the new "Bling It Insulating Chrome Paint" from AutoZone.

Those SFR headers are pure sex. I soooooo want one of those. Right up there with their full 3" system. That's only what - $3,000? Cripes this car's gonna' bankrupt me.

Can you check on the going rate for a left nut while your at it? I have a son on the way already, so I would prefer to hold onto the kidneys as I like the sauce a bit too much to count on both of them going the distance.

the broadfoot ones look like they are more for higher rpm power...(short runners)
(if i recall correctly)
if the turbo was right at the end of the headers then eqaul length runners also have improved spool time. but since the turbo is across the engine i dont think that would be the reason.
