I'm looking at headers now. I'm not trying to spend a fortune, but I found this one. Those with knowledge... What do you think?

Also, I know many people have upgraded their brake calipers to dual pistons, mine are starting to crap out anyway, so I figure it's time. Three questions...
1. Can I buy better calipers for both front AND rear wheels?
2. Will I have to get bigger rims to clear the new calipers? I just purchased new 16 inch mags in December and I'm not really wanting to upgrade again yet.
3. What is the cheapest way to accomplish this mod? And will I need to change pads and rotors as well?

SLP exhaust pipes (2.5 mandral pipes), high flow cat and magnolia muffler.
I didn't do header till I did the cams and head.
it was a CAI. and the pulley was the crank one and it can be done by itself.

I think there was an issue with the Camaro rears and which is why I don't think anyone runs them. I know that the 2005 Grand Prix GXP rears will bolt right up and is an awesome upgrade path.
Like the Camaro front brakes, the GXP rears require 16+" rims. Both style GLS rims fit the Camaro front brake set up. Not sure about GXPs because I don't have them  .

Still trying to sort out the best bang for my buck. I don't really need the car to be faster, just get better mpg.

Will the GXP front calipers work also?

Don't the Camero's come with 17-18" rims though? That could be the difference?

Don't mean to burst your bubble but the term Headers refers to each individual pipe on an aftermarket exhaust manifold. so even a 4 cyl can have "Headers". Lol. |
