I haven't heard much about jba headers but whatever ones you look at get longtubes and not the shorties. For how much of a pain the install is the shorties aren't going to perform as well as the longtubes. I've got bbk longtubes and o/r x pipe and I'm real happy with them. Also I would get a set of locking header bolts and some good gaskets to help ensure there are no leaks and the bolts don't back out. I got stage 8 locking header bolts and percy gaskets from www.summitracing.com for about $95. |
JBA seems like a reasonable company. I think there's a video somewhere in the exhaust video section where they put a full JBA on a GT500 and gained 50+ hp. I wouldn't expect anywhere near those gains, but that tells you that their product does produce.

well the only reason i was going to get JBA was because they pass smog. i dont want to go through the hassle of taking them off later or doing that tricky business to register my car. but for sure i have heard good things about JBA

I always recommend these mods to the guys who are just getting started.
K&N Filter (save your money, "Cold Air Kits" are worthless N/A) Shifter Exhaust(X pipe and Catback,headers arnt worth it at your power level) 4.10's XCal or Predator since you'll need to adjust your speedo anyway. Nitto Drag Radials I had those parts on my 99 GT, along with a stock plenum and throttle body I ported myself, and ran a best of 13.31 in the 1/4. Dont overlook used parts either. You can save a ton of money if you are patient. |
