I just installed my new headers today (my gf bought for my birthday) and it took about 5 hours...All in all it was totally worth it. There is a huge difference in the way it sounds (much louder now) and I do notice an increase in HP.

yeah i finally got mine in the mail yesterday and i got it instale already. according to my ass dyno i think its definately good for 5hp minimum. the bolts that were supplied with the header are too big, but just get some smaller ones and call it good. the o2 sensor is a little tight getting on but it went. it was almost a little tricky getting the manifold on but it was just a matter of how you hold it to put it on. i would advise to loosen the alternator to make for just a bit more room to work. as for the sound it does sound a bit raspy but i love it. its louder than before and it gave my engine with almost 300,000 miles, a little bit more ummph. i do get a few more looks with the loudness but its all good.
