    Headers just aren't necessary in some situations. QwikGT put down nearly 300WHP on a Plog and 2.5" DP setup.

    Plog and a 2.5 DP will hold you back alot when you start making some power. Hell i'd bet the same car with good headers and a 3" DP would pick up some power verses the P-log setup. Not a whole hell of a lot, but i'd bet there would be a gain.

    Comparing the prices of getting the Plog and getting your rear manifold reworked plus adding a DP, buy the time you spend all the money, your in header prices and it makes no since to go this route....... unless you're planning on going turbo later on. You're not really saving much if any headaches? Worse case senerio, welding a DP later at an exhaust shop and bending a dipstick tube, otherwise its all good and simple.

    You're not really saving that much money either. So why not do it right the first time? Just my opinion, thats all.......
