I'm looking at this pair of used MAC hts coated longtubes. They're in great cond. for mid 100's. I know I'll need new mids, and I've only got Magnaflow
mufflers so far. First of all I'd like to know if anyone knows (from personal experience) about how much gain comes w/headers on an '04 5sp 4.6 sohc.
Also, I'd like to know what someone might recommend for catted mids to replace oem setup. This is an everyday driver for wife, but don't get the wrong impresssion; she appreciates aggressive but shuns annoying, especially cruise drone. The Magnaflows have been a great addition to her, and she wants more power anyway
. I figure the headers will give around, correct me if I'm way off, 20hp and 25ft/lb. Plus they'll deepen the tone with some babbling on deceleration, especially with new midpipe setup.
I'm familiar with prices on new stuff, and it seems like keeping MAC up to cat backs would be logical. What ya'll think?
