    Really the next mod all depends on what u wanna do with ur car and how far u want to go. Like the safely modding ur car thread says, make sure u got ur car running, shifting, and stopping good first.

    yeah do the headers or get an actual downpipe. just getting the ubend delete is not worth it. but please read the safely modding your 3800 thread to get an idea where you should go. its a great thread.

    Putting headers on is an excellent way to get intimate with your vehicle without too much risk of breaking it.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    Lets be honest here there are a lot of things you can break installing headers.

    You can break stuff changing the battery, man. It's all about not being a complete fckup.
