Actually, I am surprise by the quality of the stock units. They are a nice design, and seem to be close to equal length. The only real disadvantage is the diameter and that horrible 90° bend that the right side tube has to make before going into the first cat. I honestly believe that unless you are turbo'ing, these headers are useless.... Good thing I plan on turboing in the near future.

On a related note, I got the exhaust yesterday (the Borla cat back). The quality of this stuff looks much better than the quality of the headers. Unfortunately it has a HUGE 5" CHROME RICE TIP on it!! Oh well, I'll just have to swing over to TRi and cut it off, and weld a nice piece of 304 on in its place....
