Check your headers. The passenger side one is easiest. Look for a small tube going out the side of them. That's what is known as the "air injection" You should have it. They offer it without if someone wants to delte it. It's just an emmissions control one of many on our cars

they are talking about the egr. if i was you would get it without it its a pain to get it to seal. and its easy to make a block off plate and close up the egr.

To be honest, headers are not worth the trouble on a V6...unless you have some crazy big mods planned, headers should be LAST on your list. (Stock will flow VERY well)

They sure give you a nice sound. Although a new cam would do the same.
