    What are your goals with the car? With the price of headers so cheap these days that should be first priority. ZZP downpipe and ZZP tune are a big waste of money. I'd cancel the order ASAP.

    Send a PM to Reptile (GPF member) and he will hook you up with a good tune for cheap.

    +1 for Headers.

    Get all that put on, then worry about what's next.

    You will like, you will see.

    Do you put a hamburger on a bun, or do you put bacon, cheese, tomatoes and other tasty chit with it to triple its goodness?

    there are a few header threads. the search button is your friend. as far as exhaust, stick with the stock catback. trust me...

    btw, i can tell that you have not read much around here. no one, and i mean no one recommends a zzp pcm. unless your goal is chipped pistons...

    well the one guy is selling me on here saying it was a good pcm so i just went for it. I know on the 3800 mod thread it said they werent to good my mistake so if i get these headers and another pcm i should be okay with running the 3.4 after reading the 3800 mod thread either way i need to keep eye on my kr. I did search for header install but it just gave me threads of people asking which headers to get.

    I wouldn't get cams. You'd be buying **** you don't need. Your car has a cam, as in a singular cam...

    I put Speed Daddys on last month. Not hard really just a PITA to get the old dp off. Old manifolds came off easy. Follow Bill's thread it's detailed enough for a modding noob like me.

    Also look into buying a tiny C5 or Alero O2 sensor (at least 1/2" shorter), they have long leads so you don't need an extention but you'll have to splice in a female connector on the wiring harness.

    In-car tune > dyno tune > canned tune. I'm hoping to get one of these w/ a 3.5 next week.

    And they're right about the whole mod bug thing
