well, After 6 hours total…my Hooker long tube headers and Pace setter 3" Y pipe are on…overall, it was one of the easiest header installs I have ever done…pretty much everything was unbolt, bolt right up. Sounds great too…nice and quiet idle, and around 2500rpms it really opens up…while I was at it, I put in some champion iridium spark plugs.

sounds like you have a lot easier time then i did, your lucky that you didnt have a whole bunch of emissions shit to take off of it, if i could do it all over again i wouldve bought an 01-02, just wasnt aware of the benefits.
