    Well I figure I'm getting a lot more for my money by getting headers and they give me more capabilities down the road. I was mainly just worried of messing something up but I'm gonna try it

    Can't mess anything up really, just might take some time depending on your capabilities so worse case scenario expect your car to be down for a bit.

    Great write up! But what exactly is the engine lift bracket? And do I specifically have to have an O2 socket?

    Engine lift bracket is in the back of the header looks like a bracket lol. You'll see it if you look back there. Now a o2 sensor is needed you can just use a adjustable wrench

    Once I have the cam and that installed they already said they would do a tune before adding anything so yeah that is a given. Believe me when I say people around these parts do not know **** and it amazes me the lack of knowledge when it comes to car repair. I went around with a garage for week over a stupid thermostat.

    Why am I noticing when I start the engine, the SRS Airbag light flashes a couple times? I've never noticed this before. Does it always do that?! Haha
