If you're looking for the absolute most wicked sounding system I've ever heard, I would go with either Stainless Works or Kooks headers paired with a Corsa catback. If you aren't looking to spend quite that much to go with headers right off the bat then I recommend a Stainless Works catback. All of their systems havr a great sound but you will have a slight drone at certain rpm levels. I have a Magnaflow and although it is a great sounding system, it is very tame compared to others, but, similar to the Corsa catback only option, liytle to no drone with a niv e throaty sound under throttle.

If we can be of any assistance, shoot a pm to myself or witchy@freedommotorsports for special forum member pricing andavailabilty.

I have never heard of them causing trouble per say. There is a possibility that if you install headers without tuning that you can fail emissions testing or throw a check engine light because they change the temperature readings for the O2 sensors. But they don't always throw check engine lights either. I do however highly recommend custom tuning with the install of headers to ensure that you dial in the tuning and get the most performance gains possible with the investment in the headers. It will not only sound mean, it'll run like it sounds. Let me know if I can help put together a package deal quote for you so that you can have a good idea of the total cost of the project overall.

Often it depends on the servicing dealership and how far they want to dig or whether they want to drww a hard line on it but the short answer is yes, a dealership can void the warranty for header installation. But I've seen dealers who attempt to do so for an intake or catback exhaust. It really depends on the dealership...

Do headers screw with the warranty?

If you take it in for warranty work, the dealership would have to prove it was the headers that caused it. Thats basically what the Magneson-Moss warranty act covers. If your not familiar with it, research it. It can save you a lot of headache if you go up to bat with them and they can see you know what your talking about. It been a battle ever since the act came out cuz the dealer will always have some kind of excuse. They'll try to lie but if you can catch them in it, theyll cover it.
