header/ exhaust hardware
 

i am about to purchase hooker LT ceramic coated headers, hooker off road x pipe and i already have borla stinger cat back, i was wondering should i replace the header bolts of so what kind? also if there is anything else i should get to go along with this combo please help! thank you alot all opinions are welcome

do you like the stinger catback?

The headers come w/ bolts themselves (which I suggest using over the stock stud). However, they do need to be tightened once in a while (no big deal and for me, it's always the driver side header that needs to). If you want set-it-and-forget, get some Stage 8 Locking Header bolts or if they make it for our car, ARP Header Bolts drilled for safety wire. Also, get some ball-and-scoket connectors to replace the slip-fit collector. They simply weld on to the current collector and provide a leak proof seal as well as provide for easier removal of the mid-pipe. Flowmaster sells them (you'll need the 3" to 2.5" ones) and any decent muffler shop should be able to weld them on.
