    Headers on an n/a L36

    Now no offense, I get why people want them, but they're worthless on an N/A 3800. More harmful than helpful since you can kiss all your bottom end goodbye. Which, lets be honest, is all an L36/L26 has without any sort of forced induction
    98 Grand Prix GTP L32, GenV, n*, 3.2", 1.9 rr's, 3.29 gears. All that jazz SOLD
    99 Mustang GT Steeda UDPs, 3.73s, Pypes O/R xpipe, Accufab plenum, Steeda CAI, B&M ripper, MHS s2 cams, 10.5:1 compression (290whp/310wtq) SOLD
    01 SVT Cobra #3654, B&M Ripper, K&N FIPK2, MAC O/R xpipe

    i sorta disagree, i feel the loss but its not huge, i feel a difference in the higher end which is where these cars lack, headers just share the tourque with the rest of the powerband. besides, just gettin ready for a top swap!
